Nelson played more years in Seattle and had three separate stints on the Mariners. Isn't it fair to list him with Seattle colors? Would like to hear everyone's thoughts.

The title, "Jeff Nelson (baseball)" implies that he is the only Jeff Nelson affiliated with baseball, which is not true. ( Jeff Nelson (umpire)). I suggest renaming this page to "Jeff Nelson (pitcher)." After all, it's a bit unfair for the ump. Delaywaves talk 23:05, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Jeff Nelson (baseball) → Jeff Nelson (pitcher) – There is an umpire also named Jeff Nelson. The common protocol, which isn't really touched on here but should be, when a baseball player shares his name with an umpire is to disambiguate both by position/role, not to use the "baseball" disambig on the player. See Rick Reed (pitcher) and Rick Reed (umpire) as a prominent example. Paul Runge and Gerry Davis are less prominent ones, but they also follow this rule. Thus, it makes sense for the two Jeff Nelsons to also follow it. JustJamie820 ( talk) 01:59, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
