Removing "as of" from the last sentence of "Life and Career"
Hello fellow editors,

This has been my first edit on Wikipedia after 15+ years of using the site (hoorah), simply changing "as of 2019:" to "as of 2021:" as it made me feel like the article was dated while reading it. Just had a quick point of interest to bring up if anyone happens to come across this -- would it be helpful to remove the "as of" completely from this article to avoid this being a yearly occurrence?

Currently, Bobo Newsom can only be admitted to the MLB Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee, which is scheduled to meet to discuss Newsom's potential candidacy in December of 2021.

The next time Newsom will be eligible for consideration is 10 years after that, 2031. I recommend removing "as of" entirely, and instead replacing it with an "Update after|2031" inline. Again, this is my first edit, so I apologize for using incorrect syntax and jargon as I'm still just grasping how to do all of these things, but I think it would be a good use case of the "Update After" template.
