MergetoCincinnati Reds minor league players. Though the article has some serious NPOV issues. "one of the truly great outfielders, defensively and offensively, in AAA baseball."... Seriously?Spanneraol (talk) 02:58, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
*Keep Played in the Cuban league, whose - though it isn't listed in the WP:BASE/N guidelines - level of competition is on par with Japan and likely greater than Korea. Alex (talk) 03:18, 17 October 2014 (UTC) Changing vote to MergetoCincinnati Reds minor league players. Avoid WP:CRYSTAL blah blah blah, but I have to think a guy who has played at Triple-A for the past four years - and pretty well, most of the time - is going to make his major league debut soon.

The Cuban league is not professional. Spanneraol (talk) 03:55, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I don't believe that matters considering the quality of play. Alex (talk) 04:33, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
How many Cuban league games have you seen? The league doesnt get the level of coverage that the KBO and NPB get and thats what matters.Spanneraol (talk) 12:42, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The Cuban league generally gets compared to Class A. That's not a high "quality of play". And sources are indeed limited. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:35, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete When this is the best coverage I can find, I'm confident that a merge is not the best course of action. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:38, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Spanneraol. I won't spend any time typing up a critique of the arbitrary inclusion rules for baseball players. :) But this article on its own doesn't have any references to speak of, and that's a problem. But having played in the Cuban National Series is enough for me for him to have a write-up in the merged-to article. Stevie is the man!Talk • Work 14:43, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Merge I'd normally say delete, but considering he played in Cuba i'll say merge.--Yankees10 18:54, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
