Lists are showing significant aging, including:

  • Player rosters have not been updated in a full nine years.
  • Stats need updating for certain players where the player played for the Phillies beyond 2011 (ie Jimmy Rollins in Philadelphia Phillies all-time roster (R) played for the Phillies for three more years.) Updating for those already on the list.
  • Leads in every page need to be updated for the numbers of players for that letter or letters.
  • A lot of the files for living or recently deceased people need personality rights templates at the Commons.
  • A lot of the lists have something similar to: "Among the 34 batters in this list, catcher Hezekiah Allen has the highest batting average: a .667 mark, with two hits in his three plate appearances." I'm not sure that's a fair comparison, especially when Baseball Reference doesn't allow cross comparisons amongst players until a certain benchmark is hit for pa/game. Same with pitchers.
  • Delist. Honestly, I'm just going to call out delist now. It's so out of date it'd be a massive project. The table gives 2,081 players (1,037 hitters and 871 pitchers). The Baseball-Reference citations, when taken together, give 3,104 players (2,090 hitters and 1,014 pitchers). There's some overlap here, as any of the pitchers who pitched in a game without a DH would also be considered as a hitter, I believe (they'd appear on the lineup card, even if they didn't get an at-bat), but that indicates a massive amount of updating needed. No way that gets done in a reasonable amount of time. Hog Farm Bacon 03:04, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist and consider merge or AFD JFC if you want baseball statistics, just go to baseball-reference.com. We shouldn't be awarding featured status (or 18! stars) to a mere import of a single webpage of data. Reywas92Talk 21:19, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist all – It's a shame because these lists were in great condition when they were promoted, but the nominator hasn't been active in years and the lists have fallen out-of-date. Giants2008 (Talk) 22:14, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist all per above. ~ HAL333([2]) 01:30, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, this has been left open way too long; it's clear these issues aren't going to be touched and this needs to be closed. Delisting all. --PresN 03:48, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Closing note: This candidate has been delisted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close. Please see WP:FLC/ar, and leave the {{featured list candidates}} template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through.
