Over the course of his career,
Bill Hogg
pitched 730 innings
and made 264 plate appearances.
Hogg
was worth
3.5 Wins Above Replacement
(5.1 as a pitcher and -1.6 as a hitter)
and -3.1 Wins Above Average
(-1.6 as a pitcher and -1.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.5 WAR becomes
3.7 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 -3.1 WAA becomes 1.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Hogg 6.2 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).
Bill Hogg has a Hall Rating of
6,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
