Hall of Stats

Over the course of his career, Preacher Roe pitched 1,914 innings and made 722 plate appearances. Roe was worth 29.7 Wins Above Replacement (34.6 as a pitcher and -4.9 as a hitter) and 11.7 Wins Above Average (16.3 as a pitcher and -4.9 as a hitter).

After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 29.7 WAR becomes 30.5 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 11.7 WAA becomes 20.4 adjWAA.

Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA. This gives Roe 67.2 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).

Preacher Roe has a Hall Rating of 63, leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
