The result was Delete. One user !voted "keep" and provided a list of sources, arguing for GNG to be met (and also casting aspersions on the motivations of the "delete" !votes, bordering on personal attacks -or even crossing that border). I note that I don't see any evidence that the delete !voters did not do their homework and note that several of them re-affirmed their !vote after seeing the sources provided. I agree with them that those sources don't constitute the needed in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG. Randykitty (talk) 07:02, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

 * I read through Alex's sources and they are all in the realm of short pieces of routing coverage on his minor league career. Nothing that would clearly push him over GNG. Wizardman  04:05, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep He got considerable coverage during his time in college, because of his playing performance and because he participated in the 2007 and 2008 College World Series. During his pro career, he got quite a bit of coverage, too., , , , , , , . This site actually has an excellent list of articles in which Fedroff is mentioned: . He earned (fleeting) mentions in a couple books, The Road To Omaha and Oregon State University Baseball: Building a Legacy. He also earned a ton of accolades while in college. From The Baseball Cube: 2nd Team College Freshman All-American (2007), College World Series All-Tournament Team (2007), 2nd Team College All-American (2008), Atlantic Coast Conference All-Star (2008), Cary Regional MVP (College World Series, 2008), College World Series All-Tournament Team (2008). And in the minors, too: 2x MiLB.com Organization All-Star, 1x Post-Season All-Star, 1x Topps Player of the Month, 1x Player of the Week. Individually, none of those accolades would be notable, but the grand total of them all, plus all the stuff that mentions him in depth and the myriad sites that give him WP:ROUTINE coverage, give him an excellent 'hybrid' case. There's more out there but I think this is sufficient for the time being. One believes the aforementioned individuals reactively cast their decisions without performing any research, as is their wont. Please note that fact, closing editor.

 * , thoughts on Alex's sources? czar ⨹   15:46, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Several of them are basically the same story about him being given an award by the Indians, a couple are routine reports of him in the minors and you have a couple of brief profiles from his hometown paper. Spanneraol (talk) 16:14, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah most of that is routine. Not enough to change my vote.--Yankees10 18:05, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Note to closing editor, the above individuals are more voting against the editor who found the articles than the articles themselves. We've kept numerous Wikipedia pages on significantly less. Please keep that in mind, and please use common sense when ending this AfD. Alex (talk) 00:58, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 * That's not true at all but ok. If you can find two more or so that isn't routine i'll change it my vote. Until then it's staying delete.--Yankees10 01:10, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Some of the editors saying 'delete' to this article are the same ones who said 'keep' to a bullpen catcher article based on one in-depth reference. Alex (talk) 03:59, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
