Over the course of his career,
Chipper Jones
made 10,614 plate appearances.
Jones was worth 81.4 Wins Above Replacement
and 53.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 81.4 WAR becomes
81.5 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 53.5 WAA becomes 53.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Jones 171.7 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).
Chipper Jones has a Hall Rating of 169,
meaning he will be in the Hall of Stats when eligible.
