Over the course of his career,
Ferdie Schupp
pitched 1,054 innings
and made 355 plate appearances.
Schupp
was worth
5.9 Wins Above Replacement
(5.5 as a pitcher and 0.4 as a hitter)
and -2.4 Wins Above Average
(-2.9 as a pitcher and 0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.9 WAR becomes
5.6 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 -2.4 WAA becomes 7.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Schupp 18.2 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).
Ferdie Schupp has a Hall Rating of
17,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
