Over the course of his career,
Frank Stephens
pitched 470 innings
and made 450 plate appearances.
Stephens
was worth
1.2 Wins Above Replacement
(-1.2 as a pitcher and 2.5 as a hitter)
and -3.3 Wins Above Average
(-5.1 as a pitcher and 1.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 1.2 WAR becomes
3.6 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 -3.3 WAA becomes 3.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Stephens 10.3 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).
Frank Stephens has a Hall Rating of
10,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
