Over the course of his career,
Willie Davis
made 9,822 plate appearances.
Davis
was worth
60.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 26.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 60.7 WAR becomes
60.8 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 26.4 WAA becomes 27.5 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Davis 110.3 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).
Willie Davis has a Hall Rating of
104,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats—but one who sits very close to the borderline.
