Over the course of his career,
Bob Scanlan
pitched 536 innings
and made 35 plate appearances.
Scanlan
was worth
0.7 Wins Above Replacement
(0.8 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter)
and -4.2 Wins Above Average
(-3.9 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.7 WAR becomes
1.5 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 -4.2 WAA becomes 1.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Scanlan 4.7 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).
Bob Scanlan has a Hall Rating of
4,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
