Mostly good to go, and self-nominator has reviewed another article. However:

• On the adequate citation criteria, "never played in the majors again" is sourced to the "Farm Hands" article in Sporting News, but the article doesn't support that.
• On the "neutrality" criteria, my quibble isn't necessarily with its neutrality (that was the closest box I could find), as "Suter was purchased by the Chicago White Sox...He was then sold back to San Francisco" makes it sound Suter like a slave. If PM800 doesn't mind, I'd like to change both of those to "traded" or "sent to" instead.

Except for those two minor issues, the nominator did a great job. Also, major props for finding the most unassailable way to avert an accusation of plagiarism: translating a statistical chart into prose. OCNative (talk) 01:07, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

• Thanks :) I think I've just taken care of the issues that you mentioned. - PM800 (talk) 01:43, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Good to go now. (By the way, you can also use the {{cite web}} and {{cite news}} templates to streamline your citations.) OCNative (talk) 06:20, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
