Over the course of his career,
Gary Carter
made 9,019 plate appearances.
Carter was worth 66.4 Wins Above Replacement
and 40.1 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 66.4 WAR becomes
79.7 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 40.1 WAA becomes 52.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Carter 168.2 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).
Gary Carter has a Hall Rating of 166,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
