2046:"? I used to think that some negative opinion on Kim around the New York area is due to his history with the Yankees. After I watched David Cone, Paul O'Neill, and Michael Kay completely fabricated false stories on Kim's past statistics (or, if not intentionally fabricated, then they did not check Kim's 2002-03 stats) on the air during this game, I realized that the New York media is also feeding completely false information on Kim to their audience to further portray him negatively. This is a serious media-ethics issue, not a spring training recap. Fighting against the biased media should be a 24/7 job and just because they said false stories during the spring training doesn't give them a break. And because of all the hype stirred by Billy Crystal, more audiences heard their false comments on Kim during this game than other low-key ST games. A baseball reporter covering one of the teams Kim played for told me that Kim is a fascinating guy who is often not accurately portrayed by the media. I take this media-ethics issue seriously and I hope you do also. Many thanks. 1441:

which went to the World Series, helped it catch on with Detroit fans. I'm not sure if it was used in Pittsburgh, but I know he wasn't in Pittsburgh long enough for it to catch on. As of now, the article is not written to reflect that the nickname ORIGINATED in Cincinnati. If that's your intention, please rewrite it and make it so, and I can always figure out a way to work it into the part of the article that describes his play with Detroit. I think we can figure something out and make everyone happy. Last thing we need is an edit war. I think we're better off assuming good intentions. What do you think?

809:. You would constantly change J. R. Towles into J.R. Towles and we would constantly change it back yet you insisted on reverting our edits back. In the case of infoboxes, you kept adding multiple positions so you would make the link invalid, which is why we added another part to the infobox so you can put in multiple positions without having any problems. Yet after we did this, you still added multiple positions to 'position' after you already learned that we added the 'positionplain' section to the infobox. I also just reverted your edit that you made to 1377:

offseason/practice squad member only off as well. (Unless it was there for a previous stint with another team.) My thinking is, if we add them to EVERYONE that's signed this offseason, we'll have to manually remove them all once the season begins if they make the teams. But if we leave them off now, we can add them later if and when they get cut before the season. You know what I'm saying? Plus, (2008-present) in an infobox implies offseason member only because there's been nothing but the offseason in 2008. What do you think?►

2294:, he has been in the AL season top 10 in batting average (already there), OBP, OPS, doubles, triples, walks, stolen bases (already there), and a bunch of other stats that don't really say very much, like at-bats and caught stealing. Out of the first list of statistics I mentioned, I felt that for a career leadoff hitter, it's probably OBP that matters the most. That said, is there any particular reason you would insist on having HR and RBI in the template for this player? 3603: 3322: 5063: 4935: 4829: 4772: 4573: 439: 4152: 4056: 4696: 4063: 4049: 4264: 4013: 3967: 3875: 4989: 4070: 2364:

5024: 4658: 4622: 4335: 1950:. The response I received was "The current standard is to only list when he made an appearance for the team during the season, not the minors or DL". This seems to make sense to me as it would be difficult to go back and historically determine when players were / were not on the 40 man roster and this way would make all pages consistent. Cheers. 489:, award this barnstar to Street20 for working taking on the very boring task of fixing all the disambiguation links for NFL players.

Like I've said before (I think); I don't want the baseball articles to become what the football player articles have been.

which said that he was born in the Bronx when he was actually born in the Dominican Republic, which I reverted as vandalism. In the case of Josh Towers, he has not finalized his contract and the only things that we put in the roster templates are official. Not finalizing his contract is not official.

Hey man, can you do me a favor when you're editing roster templates and always put the names of the players involved in the transaction in the edit summaries like I do? Or at least the last names, like "Smith, Jackson, Thomas signed" or something like that. I ask because sometimes I go to the history

Arline signed with the Chargers as an undrafted free agent in April 2007. He failed to show up for training camp in July 2007 and has never been heard from since. He has never participated in an NFL training camp, preseason game, regular season game or been a member of the practice squad. Therefore,

Personally, I just think it's crazy to not count a DL guy or something as not being on the team in his infobox. Take Tanyon Sturtze and the Braves last season. I know for a fact Sturtze was freaking at the games, wearing his uniform and doing everything BUT pitching. But he WAS a member of the team,

For Josh Towers, it said a long time ago ON HIS WIKIPEDIA SITE, that he is with the Rockies. Why would that be there if its not official? I have noticed others do bad stuff too, such as someone several months ago making Doug Mientkiewicz on the Giants, which I reverted. Why the space for initials?

2719:

We just keep the present part because most of the time people who are on the DL or restricted list or suspended list will return. To say that Cruceta will not even play this season at all is your own opinion (unless you have a source that definitely says he will not) violates what the crystal ball

Street, I'm not saying that Cruceta won't play this year; in fact, he probably will. Nobody knows, so that's crystal balling in either direction. I'm saying that since he hasn't yet played a game in the Majors this year is why he shouldn't have the "2008-present" designation. However, I can

You're right, not every one because of the rehab starts. But he was certainly at most, as I was there for every home series and saw him a lot. Plus when guys like him make rehab starts, they often come back to the MLB team when not pitching and I know he did that. It's moot
