Over the course of his career,
Dave Winfield
made 12,358 plate appearances.
Winfield
was worth
64.1 Wins Above Replacement
and 24.1 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 64.1 WAR becomes
64.8 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 24.1 WAA becomes 32.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Winfield 122.4 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).
Dave Winfield has a Hall Rating of
115,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
