Over the course of his career,
Joe DiMaggio
made 7,673 plate appearances.
DiMaggio was worth 75.1 Wins Above Replacement
and 54.6 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 75.1 WAR becomes
77.1 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 54.6 WAA becomes 54.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives DiMaggio 169.3 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).
Joe DiMaggio has a Hall Rating of 167,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
