Non-notable minor league baseball player. Fails WP:BASE/N as he never played in the major leagues and he fails WP:GNG. Most coverage appears to be WP:ROUTINE. Alex (talk) 01:43, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Seven sources that discuss the subject, some in more detail than others, but certainly sufficient to establish GNG for this former top prospect (Baseball America rated him #20 in the country, he participated in the All-Star Futures Game). The sources certainly do not cover him in a WP:ROUTINE way; that would be game recaps, mainly. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:47, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Promising minor-leaguer bombs out after 5-6 injury-plagued years. Available sources indicate that he might have become notable had he stayed healthy. But he did not. Fails WP:GNG. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 02:05, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Notability isn't dependent on anything: either you are notable or you are not. The coverage he received establishes GNG. Available sources indicated that he might've passed BASE/N, but established GNG when they were published. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:11, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
