Over the course of his career,
Phonney Martin
made 339 plate appearances
and pitched 156 innings.
Martin
was worth
-1.9 Wins Above Replacement
(-0.9 as a hitter and -1.0 as a pitcher)
and -3.8 Wins Above Average
(-1.6 as a hitter and -2.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -1.9 WAR becomes
-2.5 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 -3.8 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Martin -2.5 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).
Phonney Martin has a Hall Rating of
-2,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
