Over the course of his career,
Kevin Brown
pitched 3,256 innings
and made 575 plate appearances.
Brown
was worth
68.0 Wins Above Replacement
(68.2 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and 39.6 Wins Above Average
(40.2 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 68.0 WAR becomes
69.1 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 39.6 WAA becomes 42.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Brown 146.1 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).
Kevin Brown has a Hall Rating of
137,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
