This is just an all-around awful situation. Hopefully, the authorities are able to quickly get to the bottom of what happened.

He pitched this past Saturday for the Angels, and now he’s dead two days later. Sometimes life can just be downright cruel.

Dying at 27 is far too young of an age. There’s really nothing more to say. Going into a week that’s supposed to be full of celebration and happiness, the MLB has now been rocked with this horrific news.
