Over the course of his career,
Steve Sundra
pitched 859 innings
and made 338 plate appearances.
Sundra
was worth
5.6 Wins Above Replacement
(4.5 as a pitcher and 1.1 as a hitter)
and -1.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.6 as a pitcher and 1.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.6 WAR becomes
5.9 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 -1.5 WAA becomes 3.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sundra 11.7 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).
Steve Sundra has a Hall Rating of
11,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
