Over the course of his career,
Joe Bowman
pitched 1,465 innings
and made 702 plate appearances.
Bowman
was worth
7.5 Wins Above Replacement
(4.1 as a pitcher and 3.3 as a hitter)
and -4.5 Wins Above Average
(-7.6 as a pitcher and 3.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 7.5 WAR becomes
7.9 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 -4.5 WAA becomes 2.5 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Bowman 12.4 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).
Joe Bowman has a Hall Rating of
12,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
