chipper has spent his whole career in atlanta. there is no need to change it from 1993,1995-present. an injury that sidelined him for a season (which happened to be a strike season) does not disqualify him from being a brave during that time. he was still part of the Atlanta organization, just like mike hampton has been a brave during his time on the DL. by this logic, the braves streak of 14 titles would only be 11, since the 1994 season was never completed.

Chipper Jones' Hall of Fame speech mentions that his current wife is expecting his seventh son. The article currently mentions five sons. Seems one is missing. 173.160.130.14 ( talk) 23:36, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
Should it mention that he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame with 97.16% of the ballots, which ranks 13th on the all-time list?

There seems to be an edit war going on as to whether or not Jones gets the career highlight of "2021 WS Champion" in his infobox for being a coach. Looking through the wikis for the other coaches it is about a 50/50 split for those who have the highlight and those who do not. Can someone more knowledgable than me explain the rules on this and perhaps semi-protect the page to stop the back-and-forthness. Thanks Camelboiis ( talk) 06:30, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
This article (like many others on Wikipedia) contains a lot of terms that are not common English. While they may mean something to baseball fans or American sports fans, they are mysteries to, say, Australians who are not already familiar with the topic. These should be explained, in truly standard English. Piledhigheranddeeper ( talk) 14:02, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
