I don't get it, Bengie is horrible defensively. He throws runners stealing second base at an 18% success rate, yet this article says about how he is great defensively. I don't get it.
I don't think catchers that are "horrible defensively" win 2 gold gloves. —Preceding

Measuring defensive worth by Gold Gloves is like saying someone is a good hitter by citing RBI totals. --

Would it be appropriate to add him as a 2010 World Series champion in the infobox since he received a World Series ring? --

He won a ring in 2010. He was on the Giants roster during the season. Counts as a title for him.

Angels section name
Technically, the Angels changed their name from "Anaheim Angels" to "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" in 2005, Molina's last season with them. However, "Anaheim Angels/Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (1998-2005)" is a very long name for the section. Would it make more sense to merely call it "Anaheim Angels (1998-2005)"?

Big Money origin?
If anyone can find a source explaining the origins of the nickname "Big Money," that would be great. I assume part of the reason is that Molina's initials are BM, but SABR says only that he was nicknamed that, no explanation on why.

Hello! I'll be taking a look at this article for the
January 2022 GAN backlog drive. If you haven't already signed up, please feel free to join in! Although QPQ is not required, if you're feeling generous, I also have a list of GA nominations of my own
right here.
Should "baseball hall of fame" in "Puerto Rico baseball hall of fame" be capitalized?
Per
WP:INTEGRITY, I'd prefer if the citations at the end of the first paragraph were spread out and linked to specific sentences
I would, but some of the sentences are backed up by multiple refs, and it would be a little difficult to sort all these out. Plus, the citations are done this way in
Yadier Molina, another good article (from which I heavily copied the first couple of paragraphs).

Hmm, okay. Just know if you take this to DYK or FAC that they'll be a lot pickier. — GhostRiver 00:13, 18 January 2022 (UTC)reply

Instead of using separate conversion factors, you can do {{convert|85|to|87|mph}}
The exact wording of MOS:PERCENT is "are commonly used", which implies to me that this isn't a requirement. I'd be happy to change it anyway if it was only used once or twice, but given that the % symbol appears several times in the article and the use is consistent, I think it's fine to keep it that way.

Perfect for cricket fan reviewers that have no idea what this means! (Although, whenever I'm annoyed at someone's total ignorance of the sport, I remind myself that at least they're reminding me what isn't as commonly known as I think it is.)

by a San Francisco Giant does this distinction mean that someone had more RBI when the team was in NY?
Not sure, but the source said "San Francisco Giant," without clarifying who the NY record-holder was.

"30%" → "30 percent"
"1000th hit" → "1,000th hit"
