Over the course of his career,
Monte Irvin
made 4,026 plate appearances.
Irvin
was worth
32.0 Wins Above Replacement
and 17.7 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 32.0 WAR becomes
44.0 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 17.7 WAA becomes 17.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Irvin 76.2 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).
Monte Irvin has a Hall Rating of
72,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
