Over the course of his career,
Flint Rhem
pitched 1,725 innings
and made 659 plate appearances.
Rhem
was worth
1.7 Wins Above Replacement
(5.7 as a pitcher and -4.0 as a hitter)
and -11.9 Wins Above Average
(-7.9 as a pitcher and -4.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 1.7 WAR becomes
1.5 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 -11.9 WAA becomes 4.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rhem 8.8 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).
Flint Rhem has a Hall Rating of
8,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
