Over the course of his career,
Bill Fagan
pitched 187 innings
and made 90 plate appearances.
Fagan
was worth
-2.8 Wins Above Replacement
(-2.8 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter)
and -3.7 Wins Above Average
(-3.6 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -2.8 WAR becomes
-2.2 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 -3.7 WAA becomes 0.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Fagan -1.8 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 Fagan has a Hall Rating of
-2,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
