Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on August 5, 2010.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that Chris Coghlan, a first-round draft pick of the Florida Marlins in 2006, won the Major League Baseball Rookie of the Year Award in 2009?

One question

edit

Does anyone know whether Mark Kotsay and/or Josh Booty won rings in 97? They were on the team during the regular season, but neither appeared in the postseason. Booty looks like a September call-up (so maybe on the postseason roster), but I dunno. Staxringold talkcontribs 18:09, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Doesn't look like it, but it's hard to tell. Wish there was a better source. — KV5Talk16:46, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Proposed removal of redundant publisher information

edit

A number of citations in this article unnecessarily include the publisher for periodicals and websites that have their own Wikipedia article. This information has no value to anyone wanting to check or track down references. For example, publisher=Washington Post Company for references to The Washington Post, or publisher=MLB Advanced Media for references to Baseball-Reference.com, only make the article longer - significantly longer when repeated many times - without adding anything useful. 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 Template:Citation#Publisher). Please raise any questions here or on my talk page. Colonies Chris (talk) 21:40, 16 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
