Delete - Not notable per nom, but even if he were notable, there isn't really any usable content here. E.g. "he became the ace and go to guy on the pitching staff". Name of the creating user indicates a possible COI in play, too. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 23:51, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Seems to be a biography written by a relative, Username "Emattstone18". Clearly fails all notability guidelines. It's a shame this was up since 2013 without being nominated. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:57, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia is not meant for articles on every failed minor league player.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:23, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, though it is wholly unnecessary to refer to the subject as a "failed" player. Particularly where the article appears to have been created by a family member who may be reading this discussion, we ought not resort to such derogatory language. A little decorum, please.
