Over the course of his career,
Graig Nettles
made 10,228 plate appearances.
Nettles was worth 62.8 Wins Above Replacement
and 32.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 62.8 WAR becomes
63.5 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 32.8 WAA becomes 36.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Nettles 125.5 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).
Graig Nettles has a Hall Rating of 124,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
