I could even see reducing Matty. He is much easier than the other Hofers worth more than 2 points with 780 graded. Compare that to 368 of WaJo, currently the same value.

I would agree with you on WaJo/Matty. Johnson should be more in line with Cy Young rather than Mathewson. I wonder about the Joss story. Injuries had likely ended his effectiveness before he fell ill in 1911. Meanwhile, Walsh was the last to win 40 games.
