Two liner. Concerned has been expressed with a tag saying does not meet WP:NN guidelines. I concur, but move it here for more to see. Brusegadi (talk) 01:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Satisfies WP:ATHLETE, which I haven't looked at in awhile. That criteria has been reduced from "major" league professional to those "who have competed in a fully professional league". The Fort Wayne Wizards are a professional team, so the guideline criterion is satisfied, so long as verifiable sources are added to the article. Truthanado (talk) 01:51, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. While Single-A ball doesn't meet my definition of a "fully professional league" (pay is so low that it's less than minumum wage), this article says he was an All-American in college, so there will undoubtedly be lots written about him.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:58, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. In the world of baseball, players such as Ryan Howard and David Wright make sudden jumps from being minor league scrubs to major league stars. You never know what could happen, so let's keep this here and see how his career plays out. Uncheelsrok (talk) 21:24, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, WP:ATHLETE is under dispute right now. Plus, he's only in single-A minor leagues. That's not very notable at all. If he was AAA i'd AGF, but come on. Wizardman 19:56, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Delete He is only an "A" ball player with no all-star teams or awards. Spanneraol (talk) 20:31, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Objection He was a pre-season All-American, a freshmen All-American, played on the All-ACC tournament team, among numerous other awards.
