Over the course of his career,
Bill Lamar
made 2,203 plate appearances.
Lamar
was worth
3.0 Wins Above Replacement
and -5.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.0 WAR becomes
2.9 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 -5.5 WAA becomes 0.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Lamar 3.3 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).
Bill Lamar has a Hall Rating of
3,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
