Over the course of his career,
Rube Walberg
pitched 2,642 innings
and made 1,005 plate appearances.
Walberg
was worth
35.9 Wins Above Replacement
(38.0 as a pitcher and -2.1 as a hitter)
and 10.1 Wins Above Average
(12.2 as a pitcher and -2.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 35.9 WAR becomes
38.7 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 10.1 WAA becomes 17.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Walberg 69.8 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).
Rube Walberg has a Hall Rating of
65,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
