Over the course of his career,
Jake Beckley
made 10,504 plate appearances
and pitched 4 innings.
Beckley was worth 56.7 Wins Above Replacement
(57.1 as a hitter and -0.4 as a pitcher)
and 25.9 Wins Above Average
(26.2 as a hitter and -0.4 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 56.7 WAR becomes
61.1 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 25.9 WAA becomes 28.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Beckley 109.8 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).
Jake Beckley has a Hall Rating of 108,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats—but one who sits very close to the borderline.
