Over the course of his career,
Satchel Davis
pitched 41 innings
and made 17 plate appearances.
Davis
was worth
-0.2 Wins Above Replacement
(0.0 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter)
and -0.5 Wins Above Average
(-0.3 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -0.2 WAR becomes
-0.7 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 -0.5 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Davis -0.7 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).
Satchel Davis has a Hall Rating of
-1,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
