Over the course of his career,
Colby Lewis
pitched 1,215 innings
and made 28 plate appearances.
Lewis
was worth
9.1 Wins Above Replacement
(8.9 as a pitcher and 0.2 as a hitter)
and -2.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.6 as a pitcher and 0.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 9.1 WAR becomes
8.9 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 -2.5 WAA becomes 4.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lewis 16.3 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).
Colby Lewis has a Hall Rating of
15,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
