John William Goff (baseball)

I can't find any evidence to substantiate a Major League Baseball player with this name. The article was created back in 2012 by User:AndyGoff. This appears to be a hoax. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 22:46, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete per WP:G3 as a hoax. There is nobody by that name who played in the major or minor leagues. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:40, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete.. there was a William Thomas Goff a.k.a. Bill Goff that played in the Giants farm system in the 40s... not sure if that is the same person but regardless never played in the majors. Correction... I think I found the player indicated  J. William Goff with the Cards D league team in 44. Still not notable but probably not a complete hoax. Spanneraol (talk) 00:00, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete not a hoax - he was a minor league player and he is in the St Louis Amateur Baseball Hall of Fame. However he does not pass GNG. SportingFlyer  T · C  00:39, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
