Non-notable minor league baseball player. Fails WP:GNG and WP:BASE/N. Being related to a notable person does not confer notability per WP:NOTINHERITED. Prod removed without any explanation given. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:44, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. I could see using some discretion if it looked like he might play in MLB soon, but he's entering his 11th professional season and has only played six games at the Class AAA level. EricEnfermero (Talk) 18:06, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

- Delete - not seeing any evidence of notability. Rlendog (talk) 00:13, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - He received quite a bit of coverage. Alex (talk) 18:57, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete Minor league players are rarely notable, and this one isn't an exception. No coverage to support WP:GNG either. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:02, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Comment He received considerable coverage in the Los Angeles metropolitan area for his feats as a high school player. He was equated to Dave Winfield and was once the most scouted player in the nation. I hope the closing administrator considers these facts, in addition to the plentiful sourcing on Myers' page, before acting. Alex (talk) 00:52, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. There is some sourcing but most of it is essentially local human interest coverage.. and not particularly in depth. The Dave Winfield quote mentioned by Alex is attributed to one local baseball official.. not a professional scout. Spanneraol (talk) 03:57, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
