An alternate hook is necessary. At a minimum, it should read ALT1: "... that Bruce Rondón, a Venezuelan baseball player, was described as a "rare talent" by Tigers General Manager Dave Dombrowski?" I'm not a fan of using quotations of descriptions in general though. Ryan Vesey 00:20, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

I agree with you that the quote should be attributed, so I rewrote the hook to include the source. I can try to think of an alt hook, though I don't see the issue with this one, as being described as a "rare talent" should be interesting enough. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:58, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

If somebody could review this, it would be very much appreciated. Automatic Strikeout (T • C • AAPT) 16:20, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

The revised hook looks fine, it's cited, it's interesting, and at the time of the nom, it was within five days. Looks good. Go Phightins! 19:05, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
