Over the course of his career,
Enos Slaughter
made 9,086 plate appearances.
Slaughter
was worth
57.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 24.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 57.7 WAR becomes
59.2 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 24.4 WAA becomes 26.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Slaughter 107.0 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).
Enos Slaughter has a Hall Rating of
100,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats—but one who sits very close to the borderline.
