Matt Chapman (baseball) → Matt Chapman – Matt Chapman is currently pointing to Matthew Chapman, but this is the only article that is called "Matt Chapman". In fact, the only two men listed on such page that have an article are Matthew Chapman (author) and Mat Chapman, which are both low viewed. --Quiz shows 21:49, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination. A hatnote atop Matt Chapman pointing to the Matthew Chapman disambiguation page will resolve any uncertainties. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 22:44, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom with a hatnote to the dab page. PC78 (talk) 00:26, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support. No one else with this name gets nearly as much attention as the player. This is demonstrably deserving of the primary article. Songwaters (talk) 00:37, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Help me to understand[edit]

Chapman plays for the Toronto Blue Jays. But I've seen a number of reversions when editors tried to add the Blue Jays to the list of Chapman's teams in the article side bar (at present it only lists "Oakland Athletics (2017–2021)". Is this because the list of teams only gets updated after he's played at least one regular season game for the team? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.82.155 (talk) 21:58, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
