Non-notable minor league player, no sources that easily pass GNG. Wizardman 12:06, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Boston Red Sox minor league players. He seems like a decent enough prospect so he should be merged. Definitely doesn't need his own article.Spanneraol (talk) 16:16, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge per Spanneraol. Some sources exist ([1], [2], [3]), not enough for its own article though. There is a decent likelihood of a major league promotion as soon as 2015. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:38, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Based on the sources Yankees10 found, I change my vote to keep. I didn't do a thorough enough search. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:28, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep along with Muboshgu's sources above I found [4][5][6][7]. That seems like plenty of coverage to me. Add in the fact that he is a solid prospect, is in AAA, and is almost certainly going to be added to the 40-man during the offseason, I'd say it's a clear keep.--Yankees10 17:30, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as a WP:GNG pass per Muboshgu and Yankees10. Ejgreen77 (talk) 23:13, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to Boston Red Sox minor league players. Alex (talk) 02:03, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why? How exactly does he not pass GNG?--Yankees10 02:50, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
