Over the course of his career,
Cy Seymour
made 6,227 plate appearances
and pitched 1,038 innings.
Seymour
was worth
40.6 Wins Above Replacement
(31.6 as a hitter and 8.9 as a pitcher)
and 12.4 Wins Above Average
(12.5 as a hitter and -0.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 40.6 WAR becomes
41.5 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 12.4 WAA becomes 20.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Seymour 78.9 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).
Cy Seymour has a Hall Rating of
74,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
