Over the course of his career,
Carl Erskine
pitched 1,718 innings
and made 636 plate appearances.
Erskine
was worth
13.9 Wins Above Replacement
(16.5 as a pitcher and -2.6 as a hitter)
and -3.0 Wins Above Average
(-0.4 as a pitcher and -2.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 13.9 WAR becomes
14.4 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 -3.0 WAA becomes 5.5 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Erskine 24.2 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).
Carl Erskine has a Hall Rating of
23,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
