Over the course of his career,
Joe Morgan
made 11,329 plate appearances.
Morgan was worth 97.1 Wins Above Replacement
and 63.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 97.1 WAR becomes
97.7 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 63.4 WAA becomes 64.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Morgan 205.9 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 Morgan has a Hall Rating of 203,
making him not only a member of the Hall of Stats—but one of the very best players of all time.
