Over the course of his career,
Mark Thurmond
pitched 837 innings
and made 190 plate appearances.
Thurmond
was worth
4.4 Wins Above Replacement
(4.9 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and -2.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.1 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 4.4 WAR becomes
4.8 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 -2.5 WAA becomes 3.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Thurmond 10.6 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).
Mark Thurmond has a Hall Rating of
10,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
