Over the course of his career,
Chet Lemon
made 7,874 plate appearances.
Lemon
was worth
55.8 Wins Above Replacement
and 29.9 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 55.8 WAR becomes
56.9 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 29.9 WAA becomes 33.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lemon 117.4 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).
Chet Lemon has a Hall Rating of
110,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
