Over the course of his career,
Ray Lankford
made 6,675 plate appearances.
Lankford
was worth
38.2 Wins Above Replacement
and 18.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 38.2 WAR becomes
39.1 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 18.2 WAA becomes 21.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lankford 77.1 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).
Ray Lankford has a Hall Rating of
72,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
