Fails both listed criteria of WP:ATHLETE - baseball player who has not competed above high school level. Majorclanger (talk) 10:18, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• neutral Whilst he doesn't quite meet the requirements of WP:athlete, he is getting some secondary coverage. According to Tennessean.com, he has been named the The Tennessean 2007 All-Midstate Baseball Player of the Year. There is a link on this page that implies that he is the 2006/7 Male Athelete of the Year for On The Ball Magazine. However, I cannot get that link to open. If sufficient secondary sources can list him, then he is notable and I would vote keep. If this is the sum total of significant coverage, then I would say delete. PS: the AFD note hadn't been put on the author's talk page, so I've done that now. StephenBuxton (talk) 10:42, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This highschool kid was drafted 802 overall. The 801 players drafted before him are guarenteed to have won some sort of regional award as well, but they don't have Wikipedia articles because - like this dude - they haven't met the WP:ATHLETE notability standard. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 16:44, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete This article has too many WP:CRYSTAL issues at present. Aticle seems to have been written by a relative or a fan of the subject. Artene50 (talk) 01:45, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
