Hall of Stats

Over the course of his career, Hal Schumacher pitched 2,482 innings and made 961 plate appearances. Schumacher was worth 29.8 Wins Above Replacement (26.9 as a pitcher and 2.7 as a hitter) and 8.6 Wins Above Average (6.2 as a pitcher and 2.5 as a hitter).

After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 29.8 WAR becomes 30.3 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 8.6 WAA becomes 12.2 adjWAA.

Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA. This gives Schumacher 52.3 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).

Hal Schumacher has a Hall Rating of 49, leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
