Keep. Major League Baseball players are notable. sources are out there. Spanneraol (talk) 12:50, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, took me no time at all to find some sources (for both Jim Nettles as a matter of fact). Wizardman 15:24, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep I created this article, otherwise I would have closed it as speedy keep myself. @Mythdon:, please familiarize yourself with WP:NBASE before invoking it. Per NBASE#2, baseball players are presumed notable if they "have appeared in at least one game in any one of the following active major leagues: Major League Baseball, Nippon Professional Baseball, KBO League, or have participated in a major international competition (such as the World Baseball Classic, Baseball World Cup or Olympics) as a member of a national team." He has appeared in Major League Baseball and Nippon Professional Baseball. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:08, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I saw but apparently my understanding of NBASE is different from the community, withdrawing. That same guideline also mentioned statistics sites by themselves don't establish notability, so I guess the application of NBASE is a bit tricky, since it's the first time I've ever invoked it.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:13, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
