Over the course of his career,
Amos Rusie
pitched 3,778 innings
and made 1,765 plate appearances.
Rusie was worth 65.6 Wins Above Replacement
(64.6 as a pitcher and 1.0 as a hitter)
and 37.3 Wins Above Average
(36.3 as a pitcher and 1.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 65.6 WAR becomes
62.0 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 37.3 WAA becomes 37.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rusie 125.9 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).
Amos Rusie has a Hall Rating of 124,
making him a member of the Hall of Stats.
