Keep Busch is a well known college baseball player. He is considered a top prospect for this years MLB draft. There have been many reliable documents written about Busch and this should be kept. Thanks, UNC2 (talk) 19:41, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Also potentially a case of WP:TOOSOON. Cubbie15fan (talk) 21:20, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I see this article, and the one from The Daily Tar Heel in the article, but that's about it. Doesn't seem extensive enough for WP:GNG and he doesn't meet WP:BASE/N. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:33, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - simply doesn't pass WP:NBASEBALL or WP:NCOLLATH.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 22:05, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Fits criteria, this is needed, and sources that are reliable included.2600:1004:B05D:F583:D1AA:A002:9EA2:70FB (talk) 02:58, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete with regret. He certainly might be notable in the future, but for me it’s just too soon right now. He doesn’t satisfy any of the criteria at WP:NBASEBALL. As for reliable sources that are truly independent of the subject, I only found this, this and this. Not enough, in my view, to satisfy the wp:gng.

delete Don't believe the coverage is non-routine enough to meet the GNG and he fails to meet WP:NBASEBALL.Sandals1 (talk) 15:15, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@UNC2: maybe WP:DRAFTIFY until after the draft this year? Even if he’s selected it’s not a guarantee he’ll meets GNG, especially if he’s not a top 10 pick, if he signs the article could be included on his teams list of minor league players. Best, GPL93 (talk) 12:34, 15 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GPL93: I have read the directions but it seems I’m not able to move the page to draft. If you could for me that would be great. Thanks, UNC2 (talk) 01:24, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
