George Sisler
made 9,013 plate appearances
and pitched 111 innings.
Sisler
was worth
56.4 Wins Above Replacement
(54.0 as a hitter and 2.3 as a pitcher)
and 23.8 Wins Above Average
(22.5 as a hitter and 1.3 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 56.4 WAR becomes
58.9 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 23.8 WAA becomes 33.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sisler 118.7 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 Sisler has a Hall Rating of
110,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
