Over the course of his career,
Andy Van Slyke
made 6,495 plate appearances.
Van Slyke
was worth
41.5 Wins Above Replacement
and 20.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 41.5 WAR becomes
41.5 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 20.2 WAA becomes 22.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Van Slyke 81.1 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).
Andy Van Slyke has a Hall Rating of
76,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
