Run of the mill minor league player. Lacks significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. Only two notable sources are from the Journal Star (Peoria) Yankees10 01:43, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. References seem adequate. Journal Star (Peoria) is a perfectly reliable newspaper. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 02:29, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not disputing the reliability of the Journal Star. I am saying those are the only two sources of coverage and they come from the exact same newspaper. That is not "significant coverage".-- Yankees10 02:36, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - First of all, archive links to the Journal Star pieces:[1][2]. These do meet the definition of significant coverage (addressing the topic directly & in detail), but since multiple sources are required, they're not enough on their own. That said, I also found this article from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, meaning there is significant coverage from two regional newspapers, so GNG is met.

Keep per Hatman31's findings above. Article clearly meets GNG, and has enough reliable sources to support its existence. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:55, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
