first cousin once removed

Although it has been reported that Betts is a nephew of Terry Shumpert, who played parts of 14 seasons with several MLB teams, they are actually second cousins, as Shumpert is a first cousin to Betts' mother Diana.

No, not second cousins but first cousins once removed...verify this on Misplaced Pages's "cousin" page...96.237.184.103 (talk) 13:50, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

Mookie Betts is heading to the dodgers.

They have agreed to a deal that will send Mookie Betts to the Los Angeles Dodgers, Why can't we report that the deal has been made? It is a current event fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jarmusic2 (talk • contribs) 03:29, 6 February 2020 (UTC) Here is the source form MLB itself stating that IN FACT. MOOKIE BETTS has been traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers, therefore Misplaced Pages is old and outdated information. here is another reliable source from the La times no less her's one from CBS the people who give you the world news every night. I think they know what they are talking about. . MOOKIE BETTS IS A LOS ANGELES DODGERS, I WOULD BET THE REST OF MY PAYCHECKS FOR THE WHOLE ENTIRE YEAR OF 2020 THAT HE IS AND WILL BE A LOS ANGELES DODGER. PLEASE UPDATE THIS OLD AND OUTDATED PAGE IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS SUCH A TRAVESTY. Jarmusic2 (talk) 09:10, 6 February 2020 (UTC)jarmusic2Jarmusic2 (talk) 09:10, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

The deal is NOT official.. and is in fact in danger as the result of player's medicals holding it up . That is why we don't jump the gun on these things. Spanneraol (talk) 14:08, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

@Jarmusic2: see WP:DEADLINE. There is NO hurry, we are not writing a newspaper, and it is not worth the stress. --Dirk Beetstra 08:50, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

So I am guessing that He is not a dodger, and Boston Did not agree to a contract to trade him to The Los Angeles Dodgers. very interesting, I was under the impression there was a trade and A deal that was made, the whole world was talking about it, but If @Misplaced Pages did not Report it then It must be false information. Please keep me informed on this subject as I am very interested in this player and Misplaced Pages is a good source of information. I do most of my reading from this site and It is good to know that the true correct information comes from people like you and others. Thank you and have a good day. I guess the rest of the world must be giving out false information. Jarmusic2 (talk) 10:22, 9 February 2020 (UTC)jarmusic2Jarmusic2 (talk) 10:22, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

Jarmusic2, Did you read the comment of Spanneraol and me? Did you see the title of the second mlb.com news item ('mookie betts rumors'). What you say may very well be true, but there are still caveats to the deal (as Spanneraol said), and Misplaced Pages is not a news website - things do not have to be reported here as they happen, Misplaced Pages is (often) late to news. Dirk Beetstra 10:33, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

Explain to me this Manuel Margot was traded on 2/8/2020 and a few hours later his Misplaced Pages Page was updated to reflect his current team Rays, Yet Mookie Betts was traded a over a few days ago and Is still listed as a Redsox. am I to understand there is some bias here and favoritism? I am just trying to figure out why some players get edited when they are traded and other players do not. It does not seem fair. Good night everyone. I hope this deal Goes through and He gets put Under LOS ANGELES DODGER, where he currently is traded to. It is very frustrating trying to update a person's bio when the persons page is locked and Can't be changed and his information is old and outdated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jarmusic2 (talk • contribs)

Jarmusic2 Sigh .. you really had to push it right. Can you please review WP:POINT and as well? -Dirk Beetstra 12:15, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

The difference is that the team's announced the Margot deal and it became official. The Betts deal has still not been announced and at this point is in serious danger of falling apart. The Twins pulled out of the three team transaction so there is no current deal. This whole thing is the reason why we don't jump the gun on these. He is not a Dodger and he may never become one. Spanneraol (talk) 14:46, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

Jarmusic2, the Rays and Padres trading Pagan for Margot is far less complicated than any three team trade, not to mention one including as much salary as the proposed Betts-Price trade. That's why we wait for confirmation that a deal is done, because trades can be so complicated that things like medicals (and in this case, potentially the bad press Boston was getting) can torpedo deals that "seem to be" done. Jon Heyman and whoever else were breathlessly reporting this on Tuesday have a career-based incentive to get the story out as quickly as they can, to produce compelling content for their readers. That is not what Misplaced Pages is about. They are breaking news, Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia. See Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Sports/Handling sports transactions for more, including transactions that were reported as done deals, but then fell through. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:39, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

TRADE IS NOW OFFICIAL PLEASE CHANGE — Preceding unsigned comment added by Willmeyers24 (talk • contribs) 22:47, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

Willmeyers24, ffs. Did we learn nothing from all of this? I see MLBTR is reporting a reconfigured deal has been agreed upon. That's not confirmation that it's a done deal, it's still beat writers trying to get clicks from BREAKING NEWS, which we do not traffic in. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:56, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
