Over the course of his career,
Enos Slaughter
made 9,086 plate appearances.
Slaughter was worth 51.3 Wins Above Replacement
and 22.1 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 51.3 WAR becomes
52.6 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 22.1 WAA becomes 24.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Slaughter 93.8 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).
Enos Slaughter has a Hall Rating of 93,
making him close to the Hall of Stats borderline—but still on the outside.
