Over the course of his career,
Pepper Sharpe
made 63 plate appearances
and pitched 50 innings.
Sharpe
was worth
0.3 Wins Above Replacement
(0.7 as a hitter and -0.5 as a pitcher)
and -0.2 Wins Above Average
(0.6 as a hitter and -0.8 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.3 WAR becomes
2.7 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 -0.2 WAA becomes 0.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sharpe 3.1 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).
Pepper Sharpe has a Hall Rating of
3,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
