Over the course of his career,
Buddy Kerr
made 4,058 plate appearances.
Kerr
was worth
12.4 Wins Above Replacement
and -2.7 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 12.4 WAR becomes
12.6 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 -2.7 WAA becomes 2.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kerr 17.8 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).
Buddy Kerr has a Hall Rating of
17,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
