Over the course of his career,
Juan Marichal
pitched 3,507 innings
and made 1,342 plate appearances.
Marichal
was worth
62.9 Wins Above Replacement
(61.8 as a pitcher and 1.1 as a hitter)
and 30.9 Wins Above Average
(29.8 as a pitcher and 1.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 62.9 WAR becomes
63.2 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 30.9 WAA becomes 32.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Marichal 122.3 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).
Juan Marichal has a Hall Rating of
115,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
