Deletion of Detroit Tigers minor league players (2nd nomination)

Comment: Minor league baseball players have always been in the gray area of Wikipedia notability guidelines.  On the one hand, their names and accounts of their games appear in reliable sources and they are paid for playing, making them "professional athletes."  On the other hand, baseball's minor leagues are primarily developmental in nature; their main objective is to take a large group of prospects and develop a small percentage of them to be capable of playing at the major league level.  Consequently, many minor league baseball players are little known outside of their small circle of fans, generally located in the smaller cities and towns where they play.  Many of them have very short and non-memorable careers, leading to  concerns.  There have been many AfD fights over biographies of minor league players, and despite several attempts (for example, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Baseball/Notability guidelines) we've never developed a workable consensus about which minor league players merit articles.  In this context, I think these lists of minor league players have been an excellent move toward compromise.  On the one hand, they recognize that there is encyclopedic interest in minor league players and coverage is available from reliable sources. On the other hand, they also recognize that permanent biographies are not needed for most players who don't go on to reach the major leagues or achieve other notable career distinctions.  The player's name remains on the list while he's playing for the organization, and then the name is dropped. Because discussion of the players on these lists is limited to their role as ballplayers, it avoids the  concerns that afflict stand-alone articles.  Merging of stand-alone biographies to these lists has been a consensus solution in a number of AfD discussions (for example, see discussions of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Parmelee|Chris Parmelee, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brett Cecil|Brett Cecil, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matthew Mangini|Matthew Mangini).  I think these lists are compatible with Wikipedia's |guidelines for stand-alone lists.  (By the way, I agree that the wikilinks should be removed for the redlinked names
