Not even close to notable. Highest level of "professional" play is short-level A, which is not a real professional level as one cannot make a career out of playing at such a low minor league level. Ergo, fails WP:N and WP:V. Wizardman 18:15, 19 January 2009 (UTC) 
 * Delete. minor league players are not notable; also this article could face future WP:BLP concerns, although said negative material is not yet in the article.  Better to nip it in the bud.  Baileypalblue (talk) 20:56, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment - did you seriously just suggest that an article should be deleted because someone might add something negative to it at some point? matt91486 (talk) 15:36, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: Chisenhall is notable simply because he was drafted in the first round of the 2008 Major League Baseball Draft.  If you direct your attention here -> 2008_MLB_Draft, you will find that of the 30 first round picks, 50% of them have wikipedia articles.  Why is Chisenhall singled out?

 * A lot of them aren't notable. I'm not going to overload AfD with a bunch at once though. Being drafted in the first round is not auto-notable in baseball. Besides, as you said in a sepearate AfD, "Once Reid Santos is a MLB player, only then should there be a Reid Santos article." Same idea here. Wizardman  20:27, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - lack of significant coverage in reliable sources; doesn't meet notability criteria. BRMo (talk) 23:28, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
