Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBASE as a non-notable minor league baseball player. While I did uncover an article about him being a catching co-ordinator for the Reds, I don't think there's enough here to demonstrate notability. SportingFlyer T·C 07:23, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I see no evidence that shows either WP:NBASEBALL or WP:GNG is met. Papaursa (talk) 02:29, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It looks like he's a member of the coaching staff but isn't in uniform for games, similar to Alyssa Nakken and Mark Hallberg, who were just hired by the Giants, and a bunch of others this offseason. With the recent rapid growth of coaching staffs, perhaps the notability guidelines need tweaking. Regardless, this guy played parts of nine seasons in AAA, mostly before the internet era. It's unlikely he wasn't featured in at least a few stories. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 23:18, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I was able to find some coverage on nwespapers.com. It is quite tedious to get through many game summaries and transactions (as well as picking through other people with the same name, but at least some sources are here, here and here. I would like a little more before voting keep on a GNG basis, and there very well may be (I didn't get through nearly all the articles with a hit on his name) but I will leave that for others.
