Over the course of his career,
Brett Butler
made 9,545 plate appearances.
Butler
was worth
49.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 20.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 49.7 WAR becomes
50.5 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 20.5 WAA becomes 25.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Butler 95.7 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).
Brett Butler has a Hall Rating of
90,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
