Over the course of his career,
Ed Brown
made 219 plate appearances
and pitched 11 innings.
Brown
was worth
-1.8 Wins Above Replacement
(-1.4 as a hitter and -0.4 as a pitcher)
and -2.3 Wins Above Average
(-1.9 as a hitter and -0.4 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -1.8 WAR becomes
-2.2 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 -2.3 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Brown -2.2 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).
Ed Brown has a Hall Rating of
-2,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
