George Silvey[edit]

Silvey spent a long time in baseball, but he never did anything that was inherently notable. Minor league player? No. Scout? No. Minor league manager? No. Low-to-mid level executive? No. I could see him having a 'hybrid' case, but a perfunctory review of Google doesn't reveal too many strong references. His article seems like it tries to make him notable through association: He worked under Bing Devine, Bob Howsam and Stan Musial. He worked alongside Eddie Stanky. The teams he was associated with had Steve Carlton and Tim McCarver ... and so forth. Alex (talk) 07:12, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
