Newness criteria met, promoted to GA within 7 days of nomination. Article is long enough. Suggestion to change "MLB" to "Major League Baseball". Both as "MLB" and "Major League Baseball", this is under the 200 character hook limit. "Fletcher and his wife, Kierra, married in January 2019 and reside in Orange County, California." The wife's name should be removed per WP:BLPNAME. Fletcher is acclaimed by fans and baseball media alike for his defensive abilities in the middle infield. this requires more than one citation to prove "baseball media alike" and the word "fans" isn't in the cited article at all. Thus, NPOV violation. Article has sufficient inline citations. No image in hook so OK there. QPQ done. Hook is interesting to a broad audience once MLB is changed to "Major League Baseball". Similar to Angels Hall of Famer Vladimir Guerrero, that's nowhere in the citation. Hook is neutral and doesn't focus unduly on negative aspects of living people. First source to ESPN is a dead link and needs to be re-cited. Thus, the hook isn't cited in the article at current. Free from close paraphrasing, as copying entity copied us.
