Over the course of his career,
Dave Brown
pitched 746 innings
and made 311 plate appearances.
Brown
was worth
22.7 Wins Above Replacement
(22.2 as a pitcher and 0.5 as a hitter)
and 16.5 Wins Above Average
(15.9 as a pitcher and 0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 22.7 WAR becomes
25.4 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 16.5 WAA becomes 16.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Brown 54.9 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).
Dave Brown has a Hall Rating of
52,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
