Career minor-leaguer who fails WP:NBASEBALL. He has not appeared in any major leagues defined by NBASEBALL nor has he appeared in any major international competition. -- Tavix ( talk ) 18:51, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per insufficient coverage to establish notability. Lepricavark (talk) 20:05, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Seems he was kept last time because he played in Italy's top league. WP:BASE/N has since been revised to include the top leagues of the U.S., Japan, and Korea only. (Or also Taiwan? Not gonna look it up right now.) My previous argument against the Baseball America piece that it's subscription only was the wrong argument. It's a trade publication, which decreases its use for our purposes. So WP:GNG is still not met. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:15, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:NBASEBALL....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:29, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. The rules for notability have been revised since the last AFD and Italy's top league no longer qualifies. Spanneraol (talk) 20:02, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
