He's a career minor league baseball player who later got low-profile jobs with a couple of Major League teams, neither accomplishment being notable. Sourcing is wholly inadequate. Clarityfiend (talk) 12:42, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: While he was more than a minor league player, the other roles are largely in the periphery, part of the "back offices" that make a baseball team work. Batting practice pitcher is not notable, nor is video replay analyst. This is about the only sourcing I can find directly about this individual [1]. What's in the article is either a primary source, or secondary coverage where this person is mentioned. Oaktree b (talk) 16:09, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agree that the topic fails WP:GNG. Countless individuals have played in the minor leagues and been on the staff of MLB teams. Chad Chop doesn't seem to stand out in any notable way. Some of the sources aren't even about him but merely mention him incidentally. Tepkunset (talk) 17:17, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Subject does not appear to have the needed WP:SIGCOV to meet the WP:GNG. Let'srun (talk) 17:12, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
