Non-notable minor league baseball player. There are a ton of players who starred in amateur/high school sports, so that does not inherently make him notable. There are a ton of first rounders who never reach the big leagues, so he isn't notable because he was a first round pick either. He played 13 years in the minor leagues but did not post numbers that would merit an article. The only thing I did notice was he was drafted by the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins - does being drafted by a hockey team merit an article? Alex (talk) 19:49, 19 January 2011 (UTC) Delete Non notable. Was drafted at number 100 in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft, which doesn't make him inherently notable either, and I could find no proof he ever played in the NHL or other significant coverage so fails WP:GNG as well.
