Over the course of his career,
Deacon Meyers
pitched 450 innings
and made 220 plate appearances.
Meyers
was worth
3.1 Wins Above Replacement
(3.8 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter)
and -0.8 Wins Above Average
(0.0 as a pitcher and -0.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.1 WAR becomes
1.9 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 -0.8 WAA becomes 2.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Meyers 5.5 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).
Deacon Meyers has a Hall Rating of
5,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
