Over the course of his career,
Denny Lemaster
pitched 1,787 innings
and made 639 plate appearances.
Lemaster
was worth
18.4 Wins Above Replacement
(19.0 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter)
and 2.0 Wins Above Average
(2.7 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.4 WAR becomes
18.6 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 2.0 WAA becomes 7.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lemaster 31.4 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).
Denny Lemaster has a Hall Rating of
29,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
