I stumbled upon this article today and made a series of edits that I believe I should explain. Given that Rob Refsnyder is a player who has struggled to even stay in the major leagues, I was staggered by the article's length and level of detail. Before I made my edits, the article was 30 paragraphs long. I have condensed it down to 27. That is still far too long, and I am confused as to how the article received good article status. In nine MLB seasons, Refsnyder has played in 471 big league games. He has bounced up and down from the minors to the majors for years, and there just isn't that much to say about his career that is worth reading. To me, the article should be less than half of its current length. That is why I have made a series of edits to condense it. 172.100.117.24 (talk) 07:08, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
