Therefore I plan to upgrade the article's citations to remove all such redundant publisher info, bringing them into line with the recommended use of the cite template (see 323: 396: 259: 884:
There was a wording issue with the sentence involving 113 games; it wasn't clear that the 113 games was his total games played for the second. I fixed that. The related issue, with him playing in 102 games, is that he entered the other 11 games as a pinch-hitter and thus did not play in the field,

A number of citations in this article unnecessarily include the publisher for periodicals and websites that have their own Knowledge (XXG) article. This information has no value to anyone wanting to check or track down references. For example, publisher=Washington Post Company for references to
826:"1948 was Caballero's first full season in the major leagues; he played 113 games during the year at third base—where he was the regular starter over Willie "Puddin' Head" Jones—and also played second base." Do you know how many appearances he made at 2B? 933:
at the bottom, would you mind adding that? Regarding the lead, it seems as if "He lives in Lake View, Louisiana." could be integrated into one of the two prior sentences, but I'm not overly worried about it- it's clunky but it's not really that bad.
925:
For the minor league stats, I think I was a little unclear. Do the minor league stats get added with his major league ones? The section about 1953 with the Orioles says he hit five home runs, yet the infobox says he had one career home run.
786:"After another stint in the minors" It's in the lead, but you've not introduced the concept of "the minors" yet. I know what it means, but those not cognizant of baseball might not. A wikilink should be sufficient. 748:
We'll, you've drawn me. I'm not a big fan of the checklist, and I like to read an article in two different sessions before posting a ton of comments, so all I'll post tonight will be anything that just jumps out at
795:"After baseball, Caballero worked as an exterminator. His home was destroyed in 2005 during Hurricane Katrina. He lives in Lake View, Louisiana." Three choppy sentences isn't the best ending to the lead section. 1052: 1072: 341: 1127: 565: 835:
Same paragraph, "In the field, Caballero played 102 games" How is this number lower than the one two sentences prior? This may be the fact that I'm not a baseball guy showing through!
1067: 1102: 476: 582: 888:
In the three-stat sentence, it was noted that the team he played for was a minor-league team, and that he did not earn promotion to the majors, so all stats are minor league.
844:"He added 25 doubles, 2 triples, and 5 home runs to his total, but did not earn a promotion back to the major leagues." Are major and minor league statistics added together? 336: 235: 618: 179: 1152: 1097: 985:
Alright then, everything has been settled- the MLB WikiProject is another one that turns out GA's and FL's like they're easy or something. Without any further fuss,

and altered the end of the lead slightly; the infobox includes major league statistics only (I should probably raise adding "MLB" to that infobox at
1117: 1142: 1107: 1082: 922:
Good work! I think a couple of the "problems" I pointed out where more "I'm not a baseball fan" anyway. For the inflation- yeah, I'm an idiot.

Do you have any suggestions for the end of the lead? I could simply remove that since it was really just a tack-on.
