Over the course of his career,
Addie Joss
pitched 2,327 innings
and made 911 plate appearances.
Joss
was worth
43.9 Wins Above Replacement
(45.9 as a pitcher and -2.2 as a hitter)
and 23.0 Wins Above Average
(25.2 as a pitcher and -2.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 43.9 WAR becomes
44.6 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 23.0 WAA becomes 25.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Joss 90.5 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).
Addie Joss has a Hall Rating of
85,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
