Over the course of his career,
Jimmy Collins
made 7,453 plate appearances.
Collins
was worth
53.3 Wins Above Replacement
and 26.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 53.3 WAR becomes
56.5 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 26.4 WAA becomes 28.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Collins 108.0 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).
Jimmy Collins has a Hall Rating of
101,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats—but one who sits very close to the borderline.
