Over the course of his career,
Ron Guidry
pitched 2,392 innings.
Guidry
was worth
47.8 Wins Above Replacement
and 26.3 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 47.8 WAR becomes
49.9 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 26.3 WAA becomes 27.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Guidry 99.6 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).
Ron Guidry has a Hall Rating of
93,
making him close to the Hall of Stats borderline—but still on the outside.
