Over the course of his career,
Dave Bush
pitched 1,144 innings
and made 301 plate appearances.
Bush
was worth
3.6 Wins Above Replacement
(4.2 as a pitcher and -0.6 as a hitter)
and -6.2 Wins Above Average
(-5.5 as a pitcher and -0.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.6 WAR becomes
3.6 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 -6.2 WAA becomes 1.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Bush 6.7 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).
Dave Bush has a Hall Rating of
6,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
