Over the course of his career,
Rick Ferrell
made 7,075 plate appearances.
Ferrell
was worth
30.8 Wins Above Replacement
and 6.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 30.8 WAR becomes
37.7 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 6.4 WAA becomes 12.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Ferrell 59.9 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).
Rick Ferrell has a Hall Rating of
56,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
