Over the course of his career,
Ralph Kiner
made 6,256 plate appearances.
Kiner
was worth
48.1 Wins Above Replacement
and 24.3 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 48.1 WAR becomes
49.3 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 24.3 WAA becomes 25.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kiner 95.4 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).
Ralph Kiner has a Hall Rating of
89,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
