Low level minor leaguer. Giants27 (  t  |  c  |  r  |  s  ) 18:05, 6 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Low level future star. He's one of the most popular players on the Miracle who is a sure thing for the Twins in the next couple years.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 22:18, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Userfy. At present he does not meet WP:ATHLETE but if/when he does get to the big leagues, the article as it presently reads would be an excellent one. KuyaBriBri Talk 14:47, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge to Minnesota Twins minor league players. That is the proper location for minor league articles. Spanneraol (talk) 15:53, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. He fails WP:ATHLETE. Popularity in the local market isn't the standard. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:03, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, Has not been in a fully proffessional league and doesn't have significant independent coverage. A new name 2008 (talk) 14:28, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. He's not playing for the Twins, so it makes no sense to merge there. Merge to Twin's article. He fails WP:ATHLETE and we don't hold articles in user space because we expect the subject to eventually become notable. If he does become notable at some point, the article history can then be retrieved or restored. لenna  vecia  16:13, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * He is playing in the minors for the Twins, so it makes sense to merge to Minnesota Twins minor league players where the main prospects are supposed to have mini bios. Spanneraol (talk) 16:55, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, I misread. Adjusted. لenna  vecia  15:20, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge the Minnesota Twins minor league players article seems a logical target. ChildofMidnight (talk) 17:13, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - not just a minor leaguer, but a minor league all-star. Rlendog (talk) 20:50, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * That rationale fails to refute the earlier point that no in depth coverage in multiple independent reliable sources exists, and so won't outweigh it. Cite some sources.  Sources!  Sources!  Sources! Uncle G (talk)
 * Delete. News coverage consists of trivial mentions in articles about the draft or individual games. Lacks significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. BRMo (talk) 14:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
