Like his hero, Roberto Clemente, Delgado is a well-known humanitarian and peace activist, and
has been open about his political beliefs
. As part of the Navy-Vieques protests, Delgado was actively opposed to the use of the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico as a bombing target practice facility by the United States Department of Defense, until bombing was halted in 2003. He is also against the occupation of Iraq. In the 2004 season, Delgado protested the war by silently staying in the dugout during the playing of God Bless America during the seventh inning stretch.
Delgado does not make a public show of his beliefs
...
Uh... what?

- Maybe it should say "Delgado does not
always
make a public show of his beliefs." Or we could remove that part and begin the sentence like: "His teammates were not aware of his views until..."

- No, then we would be assuming his teammates were unaware. Removing the assertion seems sensible, it clearly contradicts this quote: "It takes a man to stand up for what he believes." -

Reggie Jackson is on Puerto Rican ancestry, but is not a native of Puerto Rico. He is from Pennsylvania. Carlos Delgado is a native of Puerto Rico, and that is why he is the leader in many statistical categories among Puerto Ricans. Dm23avg307, stop changing this as you are incorrect.

Delgado was a member of the Toronto Blue Jays During the 1993 World Series Tho he never played in the World Series doesn't mean he's not a World Series Champion he competed in the regular season and sat out during the post season still making him a member of the team in all sports no matter if you are a bench warmer or a starter or a rookie if your team wins a championship you are also included in the championship Delgado is a World Series champion

- This has been discussed a few times at WP:BASEBALL (
this one from 2012
,
and this one that is still somewhat active
). I even had a shot at it with Melky Cabrera, which you can read
here
. Consensus has been that a player who was not included on the postseason roster shouldn't have it listed in their infobox. Delgado played in 2 regular season games in 1993. He was not on the postseason roster, so he did not appear in
any
postseason games, not just World Series games. Rings don't matter for inclusion - many team players and personnel receive rings, but do not play in the postseason. A recent example would be
Jonathan Diaz
, who got a WS ring from the Red Sox for playing with them in the 2013 season. As far as I know, it is the team's decision whether or not to give a player a WS ring when they did not play in the postseason. If you want to pursue this further please take it to
the project's talk page discussion
so you can gather input from more editors.

I agree that Delgado is a World Series champion. This should be included in his career highlights. People's perception of whether or not they think of him as a World Series champion is irrelevant. The fact is he is officially considered a World Series champion. He has the official ring from the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays. There is no need for a debate on this issue. It's a simple case.
