Over the course of his career,
Tom Hume
pitched 1,086 innings
and made 206 plate appearances.
Hume
was worth
5.8 Wins Above Replacement
(6.5 as a pitcher and -0.8 as a hitter)
and -3.9 Wins Above Average
(-3.0 as a pitcher and -0.8 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.8 WAR becomes
7.4 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 -3.9 WAA becomes 5.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Hume 17.8 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).
Tom Hume has a Hall Rating of
17,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
