Steve Singleton[edit]

A low level minor league all-star, fails WP:ATHLETE. Giants27 (t|c|r|s) 18:00, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge to Minnesota Twins minor league players. Gsearch not turning up notability through in-depth coverage; hasn't played beyond the Single-A level, which is not "fully professional" in my book. All-star appearance is an honor, for sure, but it looks like any give FSL player has a 1 in 6 chance of making the team.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 20:03, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Singleton is my personal favorite player on the Miracle. I've seen him play several times, and can say first hand that I believe he'll be the Twins' starting second baseman in no time. He was selected for the All star team by minor league baseball managers two years in a row. That should tell you something.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 22:15, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:ATHLETE. Contrary to what was said in the other AfD, the Miracle is not a professional team . They are a minor league team. Minor league players don't qualify. Niteshift36 (talk) 07:38, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Miracle is a 100% fully professional team. It isn't even debatable. The opinions of people who say "The Miracle is not a professional team" should not count. He clearly doesn't know what he is talking about.--Johnny Spasm (talk) 11:11, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
