List of first overall Major League Baseball draft picks
I've nominated this list because I believe that it fulfills all of the FL Criteria. I believe that it is comparable to the NHL version of this list, which has already been granted FL status. It has already undergone a peer review, and I've fixed all of the problems with the list as indicated by the review. Thanks for taking the time to edit!

Comment It says in the article that two people on the list have won rookie of the year, yet I do not see a ^ symbol appearing next to anyone's name in the table. --Pgp688 (talk) 04:56, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

There has so far been no winner of the ROY award that hasn't made an all star team. However, should I just remove the key for winner of just the Rookie of the Year? See The Morning (talk) 05:32, 30 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Support - the list now fulfills WP:WIAFL.--SRX 16:29, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

 * The list looks great. The only thing I would recommend is to put a note in the table key concerning links the "Year" column. Let the reader know that the link goes to an article about that year's draft and not a regular year link 1978, year in baseball (1978), or MLB season . -NatureBoyMD (talk) 00:10, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
