Over the course of his career,
Spec Shea
pitched 943 innings
and made 337 plate appearances.
Shea
was worth
7.0 Wins Above Replacement
(5.8 as a pitcher and 1.2 as a hitter)
and -0.1 Wins Above Average
(-1.3 as a pitcher and 1.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 7.0 WAR becomes
6.9 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 -0.1 WAA becomes 4.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Shea 14.5 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).
Spec Shea has a Hall Rating of
13,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
