Over the course of his career,
Earl Bumpus
made 181 plate appearances
and pitched 89 innings.
Bumpus
was worth
-0.2 Wins Above Replacement
(-0.1 as a hitter and -0.1 as a pitcher)
and -1.0 Wins Above Average
(-0.5 as a hitter and -0.6 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -0.2 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 -1.0 WAA becomes 0.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Bumpus -0.5 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).
Earl Bumpus has a Hall Rating of
0,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
