Over the course of his career,
Matt Whiteside
pitched 406 innings
and made 2 plate appearances.
Whiteside
was worth
0.6 Wins Above Replacement
(0.7 as a pitcher and 0.0 as a hitter)
and -3.8 Wins Above Average
(-3.9 as a pitcher and 0.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.6 WAR becomes
1.0 adjWAR. Then, WAA is adjusted by ignoring negative seasons
(thus, truly capturing a player’s peak seasons) and making similar adjustments for catchers and relief pitchers.
After these adjustments, the -3.8 WAA becomes 1.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Whiteside 3.2 wWAR. wWAR is then converted to Hall Rating.
A Hall Rating of 100 represents the Hall of Stats borderline (similar to OPS+ or wRC+, where 100 represents league average).
Matt Whiteside has a Hall Rating of
3,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
