Over the course of his career,
Rube Walberg
pitched 2,644 innings
and made 1,005 plate appearances.
Walberg
was worth
36.8 Wins Above Replacement
(38.9 as a pitcher and -2.2 as a hitter)
and 11.1 Wins Above Average
(13.1 as a pitcher and -2.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 36.8 WAR becomes
39.5 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 11.1 WAA becomes 17.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Walberg 71.7 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).
Rube Walberg has a Hall Rating of
67,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
