Over the course of his career,
Joe Sugden
made 3,079 plate appearances
and pitched 1 innings.
Sugden
was worth
8.4 Wins Above Replacement
(8.4 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher)
and -2.6 Wins Above Average
(-2.7 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 8.4 WAR becomes
10.6 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 -2.6 WAA becomes 2.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sugden 14.6 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).
Joe Sugden has a Hall Rating of
14,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
