I've listed this article for peer review because I want to make this a featured list and would like an outside opinion or two before I take it to FLC. The lead is based on Boston Red Sox seasons and the table is modeled after St. Louis Cardinals seasons (both of which are featured), with some changes here and there. This is my first attempt to get a page featured, so help is appreciated.

Ruhrfisch comments: Very briefly, here are some suggestions for improvement. If you want more comments, please ask here.

This looks really good to me, especially for a fist effort at FL. These will be nitpicks - Per WP:MOS#Images, images should be set to thumb width to allow reader preferences to take over (do not use px). For portrait format images, "vertical" can be used to make the image narrower.
The Yankees article has many more images, many free. Any chance for adding more images?
The notes are good at explaining the abbreviations used, perhaps there should be some sort of explanation at the top that the abbreviations are expalined in the Notes below?
Refs look good. Any chance the table could be sortable?

Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). Yours, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 04:36, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking a look! I removed the px from the stadium picture, and added more photos and a disclaimer on the notes. I'm afraid that I can't figure out how to make the table sortable, though. Every time I try, something gets formatted incorrectly in the preview. I don't believe it's mandatory, so hopefully it won't be a big issue at FLC.

I do not think it is reqauired for FLC. List of Pennsylvania state parks is a sortable FL if you want an example. I think that all of the fancy things in the table (breaks between the Baltimore and Highlander teams, summary at the end) may make it so that it can not be sortable.
