Over the course of his career,
Jorge Sosa
pitched 772 innings
and made 102 plate appearances.
Sosa
was worth
3.1 Wins Above Replacement
(2.57 as a pitcher and 0.6 as a hitter)
and -3.2 Wins Above Average
(-3.834 as a pitcher and 0.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.1 WAR becomes
3.3 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 -3.2 WAA becomes 2.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sosa 8.3 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).
Jorge Sosa has a Hall Rating of
8,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
