List of Chicago Cubs Opening Day starting pitchers

 * Nominator(s): Rlendog (talk) 16:17, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel it meets the criteria. This list is more similar to List of Philadelphia Phillies Opening Day starting pitchers than the other Opening Day starting pitcher FLs because, like the Phillies list, this list goes back to the 19th century, and less information is available for the 19th century and early 20th century (and the sources do not summarize the data as usefully) than more recent data.

Looks good to me. KV5 ( Talk  •  Phils ) 00:41, 8 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Support, pending the resolution of the image issue mentioned by Giants2008.—NMajdan &bull;talk 20:02, 8 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Support, though with areservation on the image. I'd at least like to know where the image really was from (clearly from a newspaper; I think it's from The Sporting News but that's not verifiable unless someone has archive access). Wizardman  18:16, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The Commons link states the sketch is from "The Official Baseball Record". As per my reply to Giants2008, I don't have a problem removing the image if it is problematic, but I don't think it is and it is always nice to see what some of these old-time, mostly forgotten players looked like.

 * My suggestion would be to add the publication name and date (visible in the photo) to the image description on Commons.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 22:04, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Done. Rlendog (talk) 20:11, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
