Uhm, yes, the article really hasn't been proofread it appears. It has some spelling, grammatical errors. But I don't see anything wrong with that sentence. Or do you just not understand WAR?

Is "theoretically" anything like "hypothetically?"

What is "WAR?"
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I'm guessing the fact that you don't know what WAR is it why it makes no sense. WAR is wins above replacement. It's the amount of wins a player provides a team over a replacement player. A replacement player is about equal to a minor league player any team could find to replace any given player (or something like that). It's not a stat he made up. It's used fairly often in the new era statistics.
