 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non notable minor league baseball player. Previous afd closed as keep due to him playing in mexico, but that no longer qualifies under the revised guidelines. Spanneraol (talk) 00:10, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep Strange as it may sound, considering I AFD'd this guy before. But, my reasons for keep are numerous: He spent considerable time at Triple-A (part/all of six seasons, four in US Triple-A) and I am willing to lend more credence to those who play a while at that level. He was covered a lot in the book When Baseball Returned to Brooklyn and he earned considerable mention in The Brooklyn Cyclones. The New York Post gave him a full feature here: and he was one of the focal points here. He had this entire article dedicated to him. He also had articles dedicated to him titled Eckert shining despite saga and Eckert's time with 51s might be done, but unfortunately I can't get the text for them. There's also this and this. He more than passes WP:GNG. (More is out there, but I think what I've posted is sufficient). Alex (talk) 22:55, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete All of the coverage listed above is of the "local boy" variety or standard coverage of a player on a local minor league team. If Alex is so passionate about aggregating and keeping this sort of information, his time would be much better spent at Baseball-Reference Bullpen. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 04:00, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
