WAR is a way to measure how many more wins a player projects to add to your team vs a replacement player, typically comparable level, bench level, high minors - at the same position. It's a quick way to see if your player is adding value to your team or dragging you down and can possibly stand to be replaced - either by a bench player or your minors system.



In conjunction with WAR, OPS+ or ERA+ for pitchers is another telling stat that gives you an idea of where your player is. Both WAR and OPS+/ERA+ only give you a short term, in the here and now snapshot of where he's at. Combine that with previous performance and you can see where they're improving, peaking or declining, for example multiple years of decline in these numbers though still in the "positive" territory is a good measure of overall statistical declining "health".


Thank you very much.
