Over the course of his career,
Brian Williams
pitched 595 innings
and made 101 plate appearances.
Williams
was worth
-4.1 Wins Above Replacement
(-4.3 as a pitcher and 0.2 as a hitter)
and -8.5 Wins Above Average
(-8.6 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -4.1 WAR becomes
-5.6 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 -8.5 WAA becomes 0.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Williams -5.3 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).
Brian Williams has a Hall Rating of
-5,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
