Over the course of his career,
Jeff Suppan
pitched 2,542 innings
and made 537 plate appearances.
Suppan
was worth
17.1 Wins Above Replacement
(15.7 as a pitcher and 1.4 as a hitter)
and -4.7 Wins Above Average
(-6.4 as a pitcher and 1.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 17.1 WAR becomes
17.1 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 -4.7 WAA becomes 4.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Suppan 25.6 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).
Jeff Suppan has a Hall Rating of
24,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
