Over the course of his career,
Schoolboy Rowe
pitched 2,219 innings
and made 1,022 plate appearances.
Rowe
was worth
42.4 Wins Above Replacement
(34.3 as a pitcher and 8.0 as a hitter)
and 21.4 Wins Above Average
(13.6 as a pitcher and 7.8 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 42.4 WAR becomes
43.8 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 21.4 WAA becomes 19.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rowe 79.5 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).
Schoolboy Rowe has a Hall Rating of
75,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
