Lead

"In 1991, he finished eighth in the NL in ERA (2.98)" - Gloss NL here
"Injuries limited him to 18 starts in 1993, and he had elbow surgery after the season, pitching only one more season in the major leagues. After two seasons in minor/independent league baseball, he became the pitching coach for Liberty University" - The chronology can be misread as being 95 and 96 as the two indy league years, since not pitching in 95 isn't mentioned. Could use another year here to help contribute some time context.

College career

" During his time with the Flames, he threw 22 complete games and four shutouts, both records as of 2016" - Does Liberty University have some sort of baseball statistics page that this can be checked against for updating?
- I checked their website, but I don't believe so. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 19:53, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

1991

"He got a no decision," - link or gloss no decision, as people who aren't baseball fans won't understand this.

1992

"Sports Illustrated wrote in May that he and the other starters" - Who are the other starters?

1993

"He did not pitch in June, as he was on the disabled list with an injury" - Do we know what type of injury?

Personal life

Any updates since 2011?
- No. I'm pretty sure he's still the pitching coach at LCA, but leaving it the way it is now requires less updating. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 19:53, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Will look at the references soon. Hog Farm _Talk 16:50, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

References

Ref 39 needs the publisher, author, and date
Instead of "The Vault", the title for that ref is "Bonds Away! The Retooled Pirates Again Overpowered the NL East"

Looks good for GA beyond that. Hog Farm _Talk 17:22, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
