Over the course of his career,
Cy Williams
made 7,726 plate appearances.
Williams
was worth
37.5 Wins Above Replacement
and 12.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 37.5 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 12.5 WAA becomes 15.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Williams 67.1 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).
Cy Williams has a Hall Rating of
63,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
