Grammar question

HELLO
I don't know how to revise two sentences. Can you help me check them.
Thank you very much

When he entered MLB, many experts in baseball doubted whether he possessed enough genius to challenge MLB or not?

He immediately silenced all doubters. ,and he showed his ability to prove that he has a talent for baseball

You can drop either the "When he entered MLB" or "in baseball". " Then the second half of the sentence you say "genius" referring to a baseball player. This isn't chess, it's a physical challenge with specific tactics and skills.

  • I wouldn't say "genius" applies unless he was revolutionizing those tacitcs (cutoff men, backups, etc).
  • You could say that they "doubted whether he could succeed in the league" or something of that nature.
