Hall of Stats

Over the course of his career, Jack Fournier made 6,034 plate appearances and pitched 1 innings. Fournier was worth 41.5 Wins Above Replacement (41.4 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher) and 20.6 Wins Above Average (20.7 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher).

After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 41.5 WAR becomes 42.7 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 20.6 WAA becomes 21.2 adjWAA.

Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA. This gives Fournier 80.9 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).

Jack Fournier has a Hall Rating of 76, leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
