RIP Nick Adenhart
I'm sorry I didn't change this post sooner (it originally was discussing Adenhart's repertoire, 2009 outlook and a comparison following his great outing against Oakland).
I made the post about an hour before I learned Adenhart died. Looking back at it, it really makes me even more sad. One minute I was looking forward to a bright future from the kid and then almost literally the next minute he's gone.
Anyways, RIP Nick. 22 is way to young.

Adenhart dies
Just read that Nick Adenhart was killed late last night in a felony hit and run.
I'm glad they got the guy that did it.
Such a senseless tragedy.

TMZ article
Just reading the article. Apparently someone else in the Angels organization was in the car with him and died as well.
Unbelievable
I don’t know what to say. This is very sad news. My prayers are with his family and the whole organization.
Damage
That kind of damage is difficult to explain. I hope the man or women who fled the scene is prosecuted to the fullest extend.
Remember: baseball guys... baseball...
Wow...
looking at the damage done to the car Adenhart was in, and knowing he was in the passenger seat, it would be surprising if anyone had survived the accident while sitting in that seat. So unfortunate for all those involved.

Story just broke on ESPN too… unbelievable.

wow
I honestly can’t even believe this…especially right after his first major league start, this is so tragic…

At least they caught the guy that hit them… such a shame. My condolences to his family and teammates.

RIP
A truly senseless tragedy. My condolences go out to his friends and family.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
Just terrible
Had his whole life ahead of him, not to mention a bright baseball future. His HS was about 20 miles from mine. Condolences to his family.
RIP
Makes one think long and hard about my own children and how they could be ripped away at any moment.
Life is short and time with family is precious.
