Josh Smith and Josh Smith[edit]

This is a quick note to editors — including @Yankees10 and Muboshgu: — to suggest updating the dabs of Josh Smith (baseball, born 1987) and Josh Smith (baseball, born 1989) to be "right-handed pitcher" and "left-handed pitcher", respectively (rather than years of birth). A current example of this, while I find helpful, is Eduardo Rodríguez (left-handed pitcher) and Eduardo Rodríguez (right-handed pitcher). Comment welcome. Thanks.

I'll make the noted dab changes at some point after 12 noon ET on June 4. Or if someone feels that's not the right thing to do, comment welcome. Dmoore5556 (talk) 04:52, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As noted on the other Josh Smith talk page. This player is now listed as Josh A. Smith on his official MLB page and the other listed as Josh D. Smith. I think both player pages should be moved so I am starting the discussion. RobDe68 (talk) 01:04, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
