Only one statement in the article which might be notable, his .540 batting average in high school. The article doesn't even say he signed with MLB, only that he was drafted. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 03:43, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Looks WP:TOOSOON. Can be covered via inclusion at Arizona Diamondbacks minor league players if and when warranted by minor league accomplishments. Dmoore5556 (talk) 04:17, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Arizona Diamondbacks minor league players. First round picks are notable and he should have an article. Malmmf (talk) 11:20, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This one is a bit early to be included here.. i wish you would stop posting all these articles when they can be merged. ~~If he signs with the Diamondbacks he should be~~ merged to Arizona Diamondbacks minor league players ~~and if he doesn't sign he should be redirected to List of Arizona Diamondbacks first-round draft picks. The results should be known soon.~~ Spanneraol (talk) 15:40, 19 June 2019 (UTC) He signed today so should be merged. Spanneraol (talk) 18:09, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I only noticed them because their birthdates were added to the appropriate year article, which I have on watch. If headers on these articles were added so that people wouldn't do that, I would appreciate it. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 21:36, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This is a notable player. He passes WP:GNG for being a MLB first round draft pick and for receiving a multi-million dollar contract. Also has notable achievements as a HS player. The sourcing is there to improve this rather stubby article. An editor needs to put the references in correct format and develop the articleTonereport (☎)(My Work) 00:24, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just being a 1st round pick and signing doesnt pass GNG.. baseball draft picks often flame out without making the majors. Spanneraol (talk) 22:57, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge He doesn't meet any criteria of WP:NBASEBALL and his coverage is exactly what you'd expect for a player drafted by Arizona and playing in the Arizona Rookie League. Fails to meet WP:GNG but redirects are cheap. WP:TOOSOON to claim he merits an individual article at this time. Papaursa (talk) 21:15, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
