[edit] Photo of Jim Abbott pitching

It'd be great to have a photo of Jim Abbott pitching (given that with one arm he had such a distinctive style).

[edit] Painful WikiWeakness

• WikiWeakness #12 – contributions from a variety of authors are of varying degrees of rammatical competence and can create articles strewn with inconsistent style, spelling, punctuation, and syntax.

In the first paragraph the word, “despite,” is used twice in the same sentence. Wouldn’t a slightly higher standard of grammatical expertise benefit the page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.161.131.69 (talk)

[edit] Hall of Fame

I don't understand why it's even mentioned that he could get in the hall of fame via the veteran's comittee. The chances of that are pretty much zero. Thedoorhinge 14:38, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
