Over the course of his career,
Ron Villone
pitched 1,168 innings
and made 184 plate appearances.
Villone
was worth
3.7 Wins Above Replacement
(4.3 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter)
and -5.9 Wins Above Average
(-5.2 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.7 WAR becomes
4.0 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 -5.9 WAA becomes 2.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Villone 9.0 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 Villone has a Hall Rating of
8,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
