To do tomorrow. Courcelles (talk) 02:53, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- DO we need to mention he made his MLB debut in 2015 twice in the lead?
- "Playing for the school's varsity baseball team all four years, he recorded a .418 batting average, a .958 slugging percentage (SLG), 103 hits, and 47 career home runs." What's sourcing these statistics?
- "Bryant played collegiate summer ba−seball for the Chatham Anglers of the Cape Cod Baseball League. Bryant batted 29-for-130 (.223) with three home runs and 16 RBIs with Chatham." Don't need to repeat "Chatham" twice in one sentence. Could just drop the last two words.
- "He was also rated as the best hitter" By whom?
- "He hit .333 with five home runs for Daytona, and helped them win the Class A-Advanced championship." Source?
- Ref 34 is dead. We're going to need another source for the whole service time nonsense the Cubs pulled.
- Ref has been rescued. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:09, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
Intermediate save, More to come after I chase the cats off the keyboard. Courcelles (talk) 14:17, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- "Bryant batted for a .318 average, a .455 on-base percentage, and earned 10 walks and 10 RBI." For what period? All of 2015?
- "With the Cubs finishing the season, 97–65, the team clinched a Wild Card spot and it was their first playoff berth in seven years." Source?
- "As of June 2016, the grievance had yet" Any update?
- No update yet. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 16:14, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- As of April 2017, no update. I will add that. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:25, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Is fanrags RS? If so here's something from Mar of this year saying no resolution (I know I read something to this effect on twitter this spring too from a beat writer but...) [1] Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Fanrags, like DNAInfo, should be reliable. It's also lesser known than the big publications, but a lot of these authors are serious people. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

- "During the 2016 postseason, Bryant hit for a .308 average with three home runs and eight RBI." Unsourced
- "He finished second to Nolan Arenado of the Colorado Rockies as the starting NL third baseman i" Second in the voteing for starting 3B, I assume?
- What makes ref 84, dnainfo, reliable?
- What about ref 59, the trade rumors website?
- This source is cited by other WP:RS e.g. [2] [3] suggesting it meets the standard of WP:NEWSORG. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 16:14, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Good enough for me, if the WaPo and WSJ are citing them. Courcelles (talk) 19:28, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- This is not part of the GA criteria, but there are multiple problems with reference formatting that would get you dinged at a potential FAC.
Done for now! Courcelles (talk) 15:57, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- @Courcelles: Ready for reconsideration. I've made other edits in addition to what's documented above. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:38, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- Great. I'll re-read it... after coffee. Courcelles (talk) 12:53, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- Reading de novo:
- Feels like we've got enough article for a three-paragraph lead to be more appropriate?
- Did he play in the 2017 All-Star game? Infobox says no, but I would think the second-leading vote getter would be chosen as a substitute?
- One would think. He didn't. He was in the All-Star Final Vote but finished second. I'll add that to the article. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:44, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
That's all I've got. Great work. Courcelles (talk) 15:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Courcelles: Lead expanded to three paragraphs, 2017 ASG mention included, and some more things added as well. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:52, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Muboshgu: Looks ready to promote to me! Courcelles (talk) 22:59, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
