Over the course of his career,
Andre Thornton
made 6,295 plate appearances.
Thornton
was worth
24.0 Wins Above Replacement
and 3.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 24.0 WAR becomes
24.0 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 3.8 WAA becomes 10.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Thornton 42.5 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).
Andre Thornton has a Hall Rating of
40,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
