User:Larry Hockett/MLB veteran stubs

This is a list of baseball players with Stub-class entries but lengthy major-league service. For the purposes of this list, I'm using the following criteria:

  • for position players, at least five partial or full major-league seasons and 500 games played
  • for pitchers, at least five partial or full major-league seasons and 100 games pitched

If an editor is looking to expand baseball biography stubs, a search of the baseball stub categories can be frustrating because there are so many single-game players (about 1500, according to something I read recently) and lots of others with only a few appearances over a year or two. The articles below should be the "low-hanging fruit" of baseball stubs; these players should easily have enough significant coverage for at least a Start-class entry.

Just for my reference, or for anyone else who would like to try to expand these, I'm listing the number of games and seasons played. I started out listing significant achievements like All-Star selections, but I pretty much stopped that by the time I got to pitchers because I really just wanted to finish. Maybe I'll finish adding those details later. I sorted these players by decade of birth (like the stub categories) since people often have an interest in a particular era of baseball. I'm striking entries from the list as they are expanded to Start.
