Over the course of his career,
Bullet Joe Bush
pitched 3,085 innings
and made 1,324 plate appearances.
Bush
was worth
37.2 Wins Above Replacement
(31.5 as a pitcher and 5.7 as a hitter)
and 8.1 Wins Above Average
(2.6 as a pitcher and 5.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 37.2 WAR becomes
39.2 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 8.1 WAA becomes 13.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Bush 62.8 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).
Bullet Joe Bush has a Hall Rating of
59,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
