Over the course of his career,
Bob Rush
pitched 2,410 innings
and made 872 plate appearances.
Rush
was worth
35.9 Wins Above Replacement
(36.5 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter)
and 12.5 Wins Above Average
(12.9 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 35.9 WAR becomes
36.7 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 12.5 WAA becomes 14.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rush 63.5 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).
Bob Rush has a Hall Rating of
60,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
