re: Miami Marlins Pitcher Jose Fernadez has died in a boating accident

Even though he was older and not nearly as good as Jose, the first thing I thought of when I heard the news today was Darryl Kile. He was the first prominent big leaguer who I can remember passing away during his career. I vaguely remember Derrick Thomas's death but Kile's hit me hard because I really only cared about baseball when I was younger and he was a former Astro.
