Over the course of his career,
Slim Love
pitched 517 innings
and made 168 plate appearances.
Love
was worth
4.1 Wins Above Replacement
(4.2 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter)
and -0.6 Wins Above Average
(-0.6 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 4.1 WAR becomes
5.1 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 -0.6 WAA becomes 1.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Love 7.1 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).
Slim Love has a Hall Rating of
7,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
