Only claim to notability is having won Most Outstanding Player in the College World Series, and I don't think that is good enough. Besides, the subject fails WP:GNG. Lepricavark (talk) 00:15, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The subject is non-notable, and all but the last two sentences article is plagiarized from Baseball-reference.com. Kablammo (talk) 14:17, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Not notable. The whole article appears to be copied from baseball-reference's bullpen, which does not have a suitable license for copying to Wikipedia, but appears to have been written by the same author (Alexsauthographs) in both cases within a day of each other, so I'm willing to resist speedy.
