Deletion of Jo Matumoto

Comment: As a member of the Brazil national baseball team, he meets  by having "participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level."  Regardless, he meets  with significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.  More sources have been added since the AfD nomination; there are currently 8 in the article itself, and they are pretty significant coverage and not . The novelty of a Japanese-Brazilian, who is the top pitcher on his country's national team, trying out in MLB for the first time at age 36 drew a lot of coverage and notability

Comment: I dont see the need for the |personal attack on Alex.  The person's notability was not readily apparent until he nominated the article for AfD.  So this directly improved the quality of the article and WP, which I can only see as productive.  Personally, I'm more disappointed with the article creator for not keeping the article in their |user page until there was minimum evidence in the article as to why a minor league player should be considered notable so an AfD would never be in question
