Over the course of his career,
Paul Derringer
pitched 3,643 innings
and made 1,357 plate appearances.
Derringer
was worth
36.0 Wins Above Replacement
(39.0 as a pitcher and -2.9 as a hitter)
and 6.5 Wins Above Average
(9.4 as a pitcher and -2.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 36.0 WAR becomes
37.3 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 6.5 WAA becomes 14.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Derringer 62.9 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).
Paul Derringer has a Hall Rating of
59,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
