Author’s Note: Since the MLB season is on pause, I thought I would share something I’ve written multiple times in my books and on my Substack page. just as a warning, it has no direct Astros ties, but it provides a good tutorial of how the Hall of Fame Index works and how value is accrued over time.
In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention that I have written this piece multiple times. A version exists in each version of the Hall of Fame Index and the Hall of Fame Index Part II.
