Over the course of his career,
Jack Burdock
made 5,065 plate appearances.
Burdock
was worth
15.3 Wins Above Replacement
and -2.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 15.3 WAR becomes
23.0 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 -2.2 WAA becomes 7.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Burdock 35.6 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).
Jack Burdock has a Hall Rating of
33,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
