 * Keep. The News & Observer 2017 and Houston Chronicle / Examiner 2011 sources cited in the article are significant coverage in independent and well-established news outlets. Adumbrativus (talk) 11:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
 * The first article is a feature article from the city in which he played minor league baseball, the second article is "local high school player gets drafted." Neither get past WP:ROUTINE coverage. SportingFlyer  T · C  11:22, 30 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete Not notable minor league player....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:45, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak keep I thought it was enough when I created it. The sources present plus the News Observer piece Adumbrativus found should be enough. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:05, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Passes WP:GNG with the WP:SIGCOV that is cited in the article, as well as the sources cited above by Adumbravitus, and also this, this, this, this, and this. Reliance on WP:ROUTINE is completely misplaced. That guideline applies to passing mentions in game coverage and brief transactional reports of injuries, releases, etc. It does not apply to the type of feature coverage that Leonard received.
