Over the course of his career,
Early Wynn
pitched 4,564 innings
and made 1,904 plate appearances.
Wynn
was worth
61.1 Wins Above Replacement
(51.5 as a pitcher and 9.5 as a hitter)
and 25.9 Wins Above Average
(16.6 as a pitcher and 9.3 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 61.1 WAR becomes
62.5 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 25.9 WAA becomes 28.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wynn 113.2 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).
Early Wynn has a Hall Rating of
106,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats—but one who sits very close to the borderline.
