Um, so what is Ernie Whitt's nationality? My edit was reverted (and I later saw another's was earlier) but his page says he is an American citizen. Does someone have a reliable source that he has gained Canadian citizenship? -- Oeuftete88 21:38, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- I don't know what citizenship he has, but that's not noteworthy. The flag should indicate the player's nationality, not citizenship. He was born in Detroit, Michigan, but I know that doesn't mean anything. I would have to say that he should have the American flag next to his name. Ksy92003 (talk) 21:52, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- So... dare I change it back? I'm not interested into having to get into a dispute just to change the info, but I think making the little flag American would be correct. -- Oeuftete88 11:57, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- I seem to recall reading somewhere that he has dual citizenship. Personally, I don't really see the point of the flags anyway. If they're supposed to represent what nationality a player identifies with, I doubt that most WP editors necessarily have access to this type of personal information. It's not the type of thing that will routinely come up in a published interview, particularly in a case like Whitt. -- Sanfranman59 22:04, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Where's Scott Rolen? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.235.141.111 ( talk) 22:33, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Someone keeps adding ridiculous moves to this roster. Can we semi-protect? 24.233.183.37 ( talk) 15:29, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
- There was some vandalism a couple days ago (adding Halladay and Pujols), but it's been reverted. I don't see enough need for semi-protection based on vandalism. I have this template (and all MLB roster templates) on my watch list, so I can request protection if vandals return. – Muboshgu ( talk) 16:42, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
I see that his # was changed to 15 today by 108.25.185.145 (but only in one of the Jays rosters). It still shows as #17 at the MLB Blue Jays roster page. I did not see what # he was wearing last night, but he was wearing 17 a couple of days ago. How should this be handled (I'm not even sure this is the correct place to complain)?
Vizquel is wearing #17 inthe Agust 3rd game against Oakland. I have corrected the number in the roster listing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cpfan776 ( talk • contribs) 02:27, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

Jays are currently carrying two guys who play both 1B and DH...Encarnacion and Cooper. And earlier in the year, Adam Lind was in the same situation. How should this be handled? I think of them as infielders who also DH. The roster has just been updated to put David Cooper as the DH. He's been playing more 1B than Encarnacion lately, so ?????
I would prefer to see the DH slot on the roster be filled by players who can't/don't play in the field.

- MLB.com lists Cooper as an infielder and Encarnacion as the DH. Why be different? – Muboshgu ( talk) 17:01, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
Because the roster is wrong. It still lists EE as the DH. The depth chart shows EE as the starting 1B. \I think that the depth chart is closer to the truth. Cpfan776 ( talk) 13:43, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
- It's not up to us to decide what's "right" and "wrong", merely what is verifiable. – Muboshgu ( talk) 16:17, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
When a player (especially an NRI) is sent to the minor league spring training camp, how should it be handled? Nolin, Stilson, and Thompson are the first Blue Jays sent down this spring. Cpfan776 ( talk) 13:00, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
- If they're not on the 40 man roster, we remove them. If they are on the 40 man, we use an asterisk to denote that they're inactive. See Template:Boston Red Sox roster, where Drake Britton was sent to minor league camp. – Muboshgu ( talk) 16:47, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
