Non-notable minor league baseball player, fails WP:Athlete. Hasn't done anything notable enough to warrant an article. Yankees10 16:06, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Fails WP:Athlete, but I believe he passes WP:GNG, which supersedes the athlete guideline. He was a legitimate prospect and received non-trivial coverage regarding his status. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:45, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - Plenty of sources on the player to meet WP:GNG. In addition to the sources in the article, which may well be enough, there is a Baseball Digest article here, another article here,  another article here, apparently a bio in the 2008 Prospect Handbook, and more.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep, there's plenty of material available on Jones. I've got three different years' worth of BA prospect guides at home that all discuss him at some length. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 16:24, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
