José Casilla

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable minor league player no longer affiliated with any team. Minor league players are not inherently notable per WP:BASE/N. Alex (talk) 16:39, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Minor league all-star as recently as 2010, was with Giants system last year and most likely will stick with a team in 2011... another case of Alex jumping the gun... lets give him a chance to sign before deleting. Spanneraol (talk) 18:11, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Casilla is "no longer affiliated with any team" because he had arm surgery this year, and will be unable to pitch until 2012. Once he's recovered (typically 12-18 months for TJ), it seems likely that he'll be active again, given that he was considered a good prospect before the injury, and the recovery rate from that procedure is very high. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 15:18, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep He's only 22 years old. His career is not even close to over. As stated, he's not with an organization now because of injury, but with his youth and past prospect status, he will get at least one more opportunity. – Muboshgu (talk)

 * Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. If he becomes notable than the article can be re-created.  Wikipedia does not work by creating an article and waiting to see if someone becomes notable, you have to be notable first, before creation of an article.  Ravendrop 01:38, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lots of ballplayers seem like they're on the way to the majors in low-A, yet by high-A they've fallen off, like this player has. The fact that he was released tells me all I need to know. Wizardman  Operation Big Bear 04:32, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
