Over the course of his career,
Roy Campanella
made 4,815 plate appearances.
Campanella was worth 31.6 Wins Above Replacement
and 15.6 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 31.6 WAR becomes
38.7 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 15.6 WAA becomes 23.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Campanella 77.5 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).
Roy Campanella has a Hall Rating of 77,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
