I'll review this over the coming week. Hog Farm Talk 23:44, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

  • "He played travel baseball in his youth and did not have a hitting coach, instead training exclusively with his father." - the interview this is sourced talks about him training with the travel team people as well
  • Fixed. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "He was later awarded a high-school-level Gold Glove Award, recognizing him as the top high school catcher in the country" - I'm assuming this is primarily a defensive award like the main Gold Glove, right? In which case I'd recommend stating that - the current phrasing makes this sound like this is pointing him out as the best all-around catcher
  • Fixed. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "O'Hoppe made his professional debut in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League (GCL) with the GCL Phillies. In his first game, O'Hoppe went 1-for-2 with a walk and a run" - the cited box score doesn't really support that this was his professional debut
  • Added a game log for his 2018 season (first pro season) to corroborate this prose. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "At the start of the 2019 season, O'Hoppe was promoted to the Low-A Williamsport Crosscutters of the New York–Penn League (NYPL)" - I'd add another b-ref citation after this sentence, as this material isn't support by the ASG box score
  • Added additional source. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • {{green|Phillies farm director Josh Bonifay praised O'Hoppe's work at the site, saying that his bat-to-ball skills were top in the organization}} - Bonifay's quote about O'Hoppe in the article was {{red|He really made great improvements in his bat-to-ball skills. [...] He's physically matured and showed he can hit velocity. He's improved his swing decision and ability to impact the ball and his receiving continues to improve, all while showing he's a great teammate}}. The top bat-to-ball quote is referring to Rafael Marchan
  • Altered prose to accurately fit the quote. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • " going 4-for-21 (.196)" - 4 for 21 is not .196. B-ref rounds it to .191, MiLB rounds to .190
  • Fixed error; used B-ref's figure to stay consistent with rest of article. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "He spent the final six games of the season with Lehigh Valley," - I'd rephrase this. He played in six games for Lehigh Valley but based on the sources cited we can't assume that those were the last six games of the season - he could have played in six of seven, especially as a catcher
  • Fixed -- changed "the final six games" to "his final six games". Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

More comments to follow later. Hog Farm Talk 04:44, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

  • " In his first seven games with the team, he hit five home runs. " - not in the next citation (b-ref), I can't access the Athletic source to see if it is in there
  • I added a 2022 game log that more specifically points to his five home runs in seven games. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "and a 1.147 on-base plus slugging (OPS), the highest in his minor league career" - recommend adding something to indicate that this was as of that time; he technically had a higher one in '23 in two games with Salt Lake and that way people can't quibble over what small sample size is too small to count
  • Changed prose to indicate it was his highest OPS in his time as a prospect. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
  • "During the Southern League postseason, he went 2-for-10 (.200) with an RBI in three games" - this is likewise not in the following b-ref source
  • Added 2022 game log for this -- final three entries against the Smokies were postseason games. Sewageboy (talk) 01:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

That's it for the first read-through. Hog Farm Talk 22:21, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
