Over the course of his career,
George Kell
made 7,529 plate appearances.
Kell
was worth
37.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 15.1 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 37.7 WAR becomes
38.7 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 15.1 WAA becomes 17.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kell 71.0 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).
George Kell has a Hall Rating of
67,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
