Over the course of his career,
Laymon Yokely
pitched 920 innings
and made 366 plate appearances.
Yokely
was worth
10.2 Wins Above Replacement
(11.8 as a pitcher and -1.6 as a hitter)
and 2.5 Wins Above Average
(4.2 as a pitcher and -1.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 10.2 WAR becomes
9.4 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 2.5 WAA becomes 10.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Yokely 28.1 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).
Laymon Yokely has a Hall Rating of
26,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
