Over the course of his career,
Ryan Braun
made 7,340 plate appearances.
Braun
was worth
47.2 Wins Above Replacement
and 24.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 47.2 WAR becomes
47.3 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 24.8 WAA becomes 26.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Braun 95.4 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).
Ryan Braun has a Hall Rating of
90,
meaning he will fall significantly short of the Hall of Stats when eligible.
