Over the course of his career,
Roger Connor
made 8,847 plate appearances.
Connor was worth 80.6 Wins Above Replacement
and 53.9 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 80.6 WAR becomes
94.3 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 53.9 WAA becomes 54.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Connor 186.3 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).
Roger Connor has a Hall Rating of 184,
making him not only a member of the Hall of Stats—but one of the very best players of all time.
