Over the course of his career,
Tony Oliva
made 6,880 plate appearances.
Oliva
was worth
43.0 Wins Above Replacement
and 20.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 43.0 WAR becomes
43.0 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 20.2 WAA becomes 25.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Oliva 89.2 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).
Tony Oliva has a Hall Rating of
84,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
