Over the course of his career,
Brooks Robinson
made 11,782 plate appearances.
Robinson
was worth
78.5 Wins Above Replacement
and 39.9 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 78.5 WAR becomes
78.7 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 39.9 WAA becomes 44.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Robinson 158.6 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).
Brooks Robinson has a Hall Rating of
149,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
