  • The article is long enough and brand-new, and appears in reasonable shape. Both potential hooks are supported by reliable sources, the photo checks out in all respects, and the blurb lengths aren't too long. There was one issue I discovered while spot-checking the sources: I saw the phrase "changed his mind about the trade", which also appears here. You should probably fix that before this gets 100% approved. In checking several other sources, I found no other close paraphrasing, so I'll be happy to approve this once the fix is made.

  • After a small fix in the new phrasing, I think this is good to go. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:46, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
