Does not meet GNG or NBASEBALL. TOOSOON John from Idegon (talk) 23:21, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

  • Merge to Oakland Athletics minor league players. I agree he doesn't meet GNG at present, but there's potential for him to in the near future and we set up these minor league player pages to incubate individuals whose GNG cases are spotty. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:39, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

  • Merge - I agree with Muboshgu. Rlendog (talk) 19:32, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep I think he passes GNG along with the sources in the article [http://www.mercurynews.com/athletics/ci_28410542/first-round-pick-richie-martin-is-ready-minors][http://www.csnbayarea.com/athletics/top-pick-richie-martin-has-deep-roots-baseball][http://www.sfgate.com/athletics/article/A-s-top-pick-Richie-Martin-arrives-in-Oakland-6359675.php]--Yankees10 19:43, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
  • Merge to Oakland Athletics minor league players. His coverage is, as far as I can tell, WP:ROUTINE for a minor-leaguer; while a good prospect, he isn't in the majors yet and I don't think he crosses the GNG bar quite yet. - The Bushranger One ping only 11:54, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
  • Merge to Athletics MLPs-He isn't in the major leagues yet and probably isn't above the GNG bar.Joel.Miles925 (talk) 14:06, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
  • Merge to Oakland Athletics minor league players. I remind everyone that WP:GNG is a prerequisite, but not a guarantee of the subject's inclusion as a stand-alone Wikipedia article. Even when a particular subject is clearly notable, editors may decide that the subject is better covered as part of a larger article or list, and for most minor league baseball players they are better covered proportionately and in the context of their minor league contemporaries. This is called "editorial judgment," which is often confused with notability; they are not the same thing. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 14:28, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
