The result was no consensus. I think it is too early to decide wether if this article is notable or not as it there was too little chance for the article creator to assert notability. If this article is still problematic after 2 weeks or so, I would recommend sending it through the AfD again. Also, the lack of consensus for deletion also contributed to this result.

Fails WP:NOT, the MLB Draft isn't as important as the NFL Draft, and it's an issue that it doesn't matter where you get drafted here, because most people who gets drafted in the MLB Draft doesn't reach the majors Delete Secret account 01:42, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep I understand your argument, and I do agree that it is less important than the draft in the NFL, NHL, or NBA because the players drafted don't begin professional play right away. However, it seems that most of the top draft picks do end up eventually playing in the majors, so I don't believe that articles about the first round picks for a team lack notability.  And there are already articles for the first round picks for the MLB in general for each year so there is a precedent.  If this article is deleted on notability grounds, those other articles should definitely be deleted. --  At am a chat 02:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The only articles I see is the main MLB draft articles, which I don't mind much, I can't see the teams ones. Secret account 02:20, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I meant articles like 2007 Major League Baseball Draft. That information wouldn't be any different than what would be on team draft pick pages.  There is an article for every year going back to 2001.  If that information is notable enough, then the team draft pages are as well.  If it isn't, then we should consider deleting that as well. --  At am a chat 23:44, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Somewhat weak delete Nearly empty article. --Kannie | talk 02:56, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The article was only created a short time ago, give it time. The real question is whether it's notable enough to warrant having a page at all. --  At am a chat 23:46, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
