Over the course of his career,
Asa Brainard
pitched 699 innings
and made 477 plate appearances.
Brainard
was worth
-6.1 Wins Above Replacement
(-5.6 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and -12.1 Wins Above Average
(-11.4 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -6.1 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 -12.1 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Brainard -3.6 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).
Asa Brainard has a Hall Rating of
-3,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
