Over the course of his career,
Mark Leiter
pitched 1,184 innings
and made 225 plate appearances.
Leiter
was worth
3.3 Wins Above Replacement
(3.8 as a pitcher and -0.6 as a hitter)
and -6.7 Wins Above Average
(-6.1 as a pitcher and -0.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.3 WAR becomes
4.3 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 -6.7 WAA becomes 1.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Leiter 6.6 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).
Mark Leiter has a Hall Rating of
6,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
