Over the course of his career,
Leo Birdine
made 357 plate appearances
and pitched 309 innings.
Birdine
was worth
-2.6 Wins Above Replacement
(0.0 as a hitter and -2.6 as a pitcher)
and -5.8 Wins Above Average
(-0.6 as a hitter and -5.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -2.6 WAR becomes
-1.2 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 -5.8 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Birdine -1.2 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).
Leo Birdine has a Hall Rating of
-1,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
