• Speedy Delete as recreation of a page that was deleted in a prior deletion discussion. Spanneraol (talk) 13:48, 10 January 2012 (UTC) Switch to regular delete per below. Spanneraol (talk) 16:19, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
• But it was deleted in 2007. Surely things could have changed. Unless this is the text from the deleted page wasn't changed, that is. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:54, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• Wait, was it deleted? From the article history, it looks like the AfD was closed as delete, but then the page wasn't deleted. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:57, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• Then if the closing admin forgot to delete the page after closing the afd it should definitely be speedied... does not look like the article has changed in any significant manner since that point. Spanneraol (talk) 16:48, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• It was overturned in DRV because of sockpuppetry being involved in the original AFD. Secret ^account 19:35, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• Oh. That sounds like an accused suspect being let off because he wasn't read his Miranda rights. I wonder why the talk page and first AfD make no mention of the DRV. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:33, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
• Weak Delete Fails WP:BASE/N, though there do appear to be some sources about him out there. If there is enough in those sources to make a meaningful article, without relying on routine coverage, I could change my vote. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:55, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• Merge/Redirect to Rod Gaspar, the article on his (notable) father, which could use the content. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 17:40, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• I don't see anything to merge/redirect there. Rod's article shouldn't include discussion of his son's career. It seems to have as much detail about the son as is required.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Muboshgu (talk • contribs)
• I think it's relevant that the son achieved a certain measure of notability in the same field as the father (particularly given baseball scouts' focus on bloodlines when assessing players). Making a conference All-Star team and becoming a first-round pick isn't enough to make the son independently notable, but it's not nothing, either. All Rod Gaspar's article currently says about his son is that he played pro ball. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 14:26, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
• Delete Per my original vote in the AFD and the DRV. Fails WP:BASE/N, only routine coverage that's typical of first round MLB picks. Secret ^account 19:35, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
• Partial merge or redirect per Hit bull, win steak. Any merge should be limited basically to what HBWS suggests, which can be about 2 sentences - that Cade was a college conference All-Star, Detroit Tigers 1994 1st round pick, played A-class ball in the minor leagues from 94 to 96.
