Over the course of his career,
Earl Averill
made 7,221 plate appearances.
Averill was worth 45.1 Wins Above Replacement
and 22.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 45.1 WAR becomes
46.3 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 22.8 WAA becomes 24.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Averill 87.9 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).
Earl Averill has a Hall Rating of 87,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
