Over the course of his career,
Tom Burgmeier
pitched 1,258 innings
and made 70 plate appearances.
Burgmeier
was worth
18.1 Wins Above Replacement
(17.5 as a pitcher and 0.4 as a hitter)
and 5.7 Wins Above Average
(5.3 as a pitcher and 0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.1 WAR becomes
21.8 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 5.7 WAA becomes 13.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Burgmeier 45.4 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).
Tom Burgmeier has a Hall Rating of
43,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
