[edit]GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose quality:
- An engaging read; the only exception is the steroids section, but I'll address that in 3b.
- B. MoS compliance:
- The See also section is excessive. According to WP:LAYOUT, it is supposed to be a short list of related articles. As well, you should not repeat the name of the article in section headings.
- Headings are OK; the list is still excessive. Can you incorporate those vital links in the article itself? 12:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

- A. Major aspects:
- B. Focused:
- The steroids section is too big compared to the other section. While steroids are a very important issue in baseball right now, it does not merit 15 paragraphs, of which some are pretty choppy. I suggest halving the section at the very minimum.
