Lead

 * Can you expand a bit on his pitching style in the lead? It just seems a bit short. Maybe add a fact about his fastball from the pitching style section? So it would look like: Surkamp batted and threw left-handed with his fastball averaging 89 miles per hour.
 * Can you WL Bachelor of Science?

Amateur career

 * I feel this is a bit of a weird title since it discusses his birthday and who he admired growing up. Could this be retitled "Early life and amateur career" or is that too long?
 * Who are his parents?
 * I couldn't find any info about them, even in the high school articles or the MLB bio, both places you'd think would include it. Sorry! Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 00:06, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * He helped his high school win a state baseball title in 2004
 * Wording might be a little funny, but that's mentioned (with that article) at end of 1st paragraph. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 23:54, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Here are some newspaper articles about his HS career. It can definitely get expanded:
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * Please add (NC State) when the school is first mentioned as you use that short form in the personal life section.

Professional career

 * Please wikilink Jon Weisman
 * Thanks! Didn't realize he was famous. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 23:52, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Are there any articles stating his retirement date and reason?
 * Not that I can find. This is easy with high-profile players but can be difficult with guys like him. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 23:52, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
