Over the course of his career,
Bob Wickman
pitched 1,059 innings
and made 2 plate appearances.
Wickman was worth 15.4 Wins Above Replacement
(15.4 as a pitcher and 0.0 as a hitter)
and 6.0 Wins Above Average
(6.0 as a pitcher and 0.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 15.4 WAR becomes
19.3 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 6.0 WAA becomes 9.5 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wickman 35.4 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 Wickman has a Hall Rating of 35,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
