Blue Jays

[edit]

he doesn't actually play for the Blue Jays so it is inaccurate to say that he is a starting pitcher for the Blue Jays. He was signed to a minor league deal and may not even make hte club so whichever idiot keeps changing it reword it so that it shows that he's not on the starting staff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.0.197.41 (talk) 05:48, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He is a pitcher in the Blue Jays organization, and has not yet been assigned to any minor league affiliate of the Blue Jays. It is a contract formality that during the offseason, certain players are given minor league contracts with the chance to prove themselves in Spring Training, or then be assigned to an affiliate, usually at Triple-A. This loophole allows clubs to sign players with the benefit of not having to add them to the team's 40-man roster.
In any event, it should stay as it is. This is how most any minor league player's page looks on wikipedia. -- KirinX 06:20, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that but it is still inaccurate to say he's currently a starting pitcher for the Jays. I think it would be better if you added in the fact he was given an invite into spring training with a chance to make the club. It's unlikely he'll even be available to start until midseason. -- ETod09 4:17, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

I've gone and changed it to something I feel is a suitable compromise. Comments? -- KirinX 21:29, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That is much better, not trying to be annoying or anything it's just not likely he'll pitch till mid-season and he may not evne pitch a game for the Jays this year. -- ETod09 4:17, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Redirect

[edit]

There appears to be a separate page titled "Victor Zambrano" that redirects to "Victor Zambrano" (no spelling difference). Should this be fixed? Hallpriest9 (Talk|Archive) 02:39, 17 July 2007 (UTC) (Also, there is an internal link in this comment that is stylized as an external link. Is this normal?)[reply]

1. If you notice, this is Víctor, with a í, not an i. The redirect is to this talkpage's article. 2. You linked to a URL, not an internal Wikilink, thus, it appears as an external link. -- KirinX 05:43, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
