Over the course of his career,
Butch Wynegar
made 5,067 plate appearances.
Wynegar
was worth
26.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 9.7 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 26.7 WAR becomes
31.8 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 9.7 WAA becomes 14.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wynegar 57.7 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).
Butch Wynegar has a Hall Rating of
54,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
