The result was delete. The consensus is to delete as not meeting the notability criteria. As Alex did not elaborate further, IAR is insufficient to override the notability criteria in this case. PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 16:51, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not notable per WP:GNG or WP:BASEBALL. John from Idegon (talk) 22:48, 14 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notable per WP:IGNOREALLRULES, this article has true research value in a non-esoteric topic (baseball). Alex (talk) 23:23, 14 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Can you elaborate? Rlendog (talk) 14:46, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - not seeing anything notable here. Willing to reconsider pending Alex's response to my query about his "true research value." While I agree with Alex on the George Nell discussion, I don't see anything particularly compelling here. Not everyone who ever played minor league baseball is notable.

  • Comment - Player was involved in a trade involving several notable major leaguers. Does this make him notable himself? I'm not sure. But that could be what Alex was talking about. Withholding vote until he says something. Smartyllama (talk) 17:55, 15 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
