Over the course of his career,
Bill Lohrman
pitched 990 innings
and made 354 plate appearances.
Lohrman
was worth
5.1 Wins Above Replacement
(5.6 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter)
and -3.2 Wins Above Average
(-2.7 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.1 WAR becomes
5.4 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 -3.2 WAA becomes 1.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lohrman 7.9 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 Lohrman has a Hall Rating of
7,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
