notability concerns. The most notable thing about this person seems to be being 'one of the leagues most productive players to date' in Little League Baseball in the city of Santa Fe Springs, attributed to scouting records of the Texas Rangers. It is clear that this page needs some cleanup and wikifying, but those are seperate issues, not important for this AfD Martijn Hoekstra 11:52, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

  • Delete baseball player who only ever played in two minor-league games. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete does not meet notability requirement for athletes. Edward321 18:19, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as possible hoax. Baseball Cube has no record of this guy ever playing for the Bakersfield Blaze as the article claims. No sources, article's creator has no other listed edits. I doubt the Rangers scout Little League teams in Santa Fe. Spanneraol 01:51, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Update, I checked the assertion that he was chosen 23rd in the first round of the 88 draft... [1]... not true. Definite hoax. Spanneraol 02:00, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
