Edgar Martínez (pitcher)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable minor league baseball pitcher, who is currently playing in unaffiliated independent ball. As a whole, his statistics weren't stupendous and therefore do not merit an article on their own. References are sparse. He was selected to an All-Star Futures Game, which may be his saving grace. Alex (talk) 21:40, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:BASEBALL/N by not having played in the major leagues. Fails WP:GNG with no significant coverage from WP:Independent sources;  coverage is WP:ROUTINE for WP:Run-of-the-mill athlete.  He is not playing in 2011, so there is no franchise article for minor league players that he can be redirected to. —Bagumba (talk) 21:58, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
