Over the course of his career,
Ken Boyer
made 8,272 plate appearances.
Boyer was worth 58.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 31.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 58.7 WAR becomes
59.7 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 31.5 WAA becomes 34.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Boyer 117.3 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).
Ken Boyer has a Hall Rating of 116,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
