Over the course of his career,
Silver King
pitched 3,180 innings
and made 1,477 plate appearances.
King
was worth
50.3 Wins Above Replacement
(50.1 as a pitcher and 0.3 as a hitter)
and 29.3 Wins Above Average
(29.3 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 50.3 WAR becomes
41.2 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 29.3 WAA becomes 27.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives King 90.0 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).
Silver King has a Hall Rating of
85,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
