Over the course of his career,
Paul Zahniser
pitched 618 innings
and made 215 plate appearances.
Zahniser
was worth
0.5 Wins Above Replacement
(1.4 as a pitcher and -1.0 as a hitter)
and -5.4 Wins Above Average
(-4.5 as a pitcher and -1.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.5 WAR becomes
0.6 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 -5.4 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Zahniser 0.6 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).
Paul Zahniser has a Hall Rating of
1,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
