Over the course of his career,
Otis Starks
pitched 321 innings
and made 141 plate appearances.
Starks
was worth
0.5 Wins Above Replacement
(1.1 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter)
and -2.1 Wins Above Average
(-1.6 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.5 WAR becomes
0.5 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 -2.1 WAA becomes 0.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Starks 2.1 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).
Otis Starks has a Hall Rating of
2,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
