Over the course of his career,
Bobby Wallace
made 9,612 plate appearances
and pitched 402 innings.
Wallace was worth 71.6 Wins Above Replacement
(66.0 as a hitter and 5.6 as a pitcher)
and 37.7 Wins Above Average
(35.1 as a hitter and 2.6 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 71.6 WAR becomes
74.6 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 37.7 WAA becomes 41.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wallace 145.0 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).
Bobby Wallace has a Hall Rating of 143,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
