I have put together a document entitled A HALL OF FAME HANDBOOK: Who Belongs and Who Does Not<\/strong>. This is a 100-page MS WORD monograph which contains an explanation of the CAWS Career Gauge (Career Assessment\/Win Shares) as well as a number of articles that have appeared on this site.<\/p>\n

The second half of the monograph may prove of particular interest to many fans. It consists of a set of lists that a fan can consult to see whether John Doe has HOF numbers according to the CAWS Gauge \u00e2\u20ac\u201c as well as where John ranks against all the great players of the 20th century.<\/p>\n

For example, does Derek Jeter have Hall of Fame numbers? The answer is yes. There are 17 shortstops who posted HOF numbers during the 20th century. As you can see below, Jeter is #11. Since I assume that he has many more productive seasons ahead, he could wind up as high as #5 or 6 – or higher?<\/p>\n

All numbers include the 2008 season.
\nBold = Hall of Famer<\/strong>
\nItalic = Active Player in 2008<\/em>
\nCWS = Career Win Shares
\nCV = Core Value (sum of win shares for 10 best seasons)
\nCAWS = Career Assessment\/Win Shares = CV + .25(CWS \u00e2\u20ac\u201c CV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
