not notable, fails WP:BIO. Miamite 09:00, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

• Comment. How does this fail WP:BIO? The WP:BIO requirement is that a player plays in a fully professional league, which he does. Smashville 22:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. As noted above, this player meets the current standard for athletes in WP:BIO, and it should be noted that he also meets the proposed standards in Wikipedia:Notability (sports) by playing for the AAA Columbus and New Orleans teams. Requests have been made that baseball player AfD's be put on hold until the proposed guidelines are worked out. Kinston eagle 00:55, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
• Delete again I don't see sources, (more than the other two though) that wasn't independent, a stats site, or trivial mentions, also he played six games in AAA, doesn't seem like a whole year to me. Jaranda ^{wat's sup Sports!} 02:14, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Actually, he has played 10 games at the AAA level between Columbus and New Orleans. He was also a minor league all-star in 1999 and 2000. Kinston eagle 11:51, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
    • 10 games...still not a full season. Smashville 13:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. The appearances at AAA were fairly brief. However, as Kinston notes, he has also played on two minor-league All Star teams, which is a reasonable assertion of notability for a minor league player. There are reasonable non-trivial sources on him out there, such as this mention in USA Today, this profile in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star, and this article (capsule view only) in the San Bernardino Sun (that's just the first three good examples in 15 pages of results from Google News). -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 16:23, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Meets WP:BIO...and by virtue of making Minor League All Star teams, meets proposed Wikipedia:Notability (sports) requirements, too... Smashville 16:44, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Minor league all-stars are notable. Spanneraol 17:15, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
• Comment . Is there some sort of source to the repeated mantra here that he was a minor league all-star? --Truest blue 16:52, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

• Sure. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 17:45, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
  • 2000 Rookie Level All-Star Team (Baseball America) sounds like it isn't really an All-Star Team, instead seems like a All-Star team created by the magazine. Jaranda ^{wat's sup Sports!} 02:02, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

• That one's a judgement call. Personally, I count it, since BA is basically the bible of minor league baseball. The other one is pretty indisputable, anyway. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 12:21, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
