As a huge baseball fan I am in complete disbelief right now. Such a sad story and I can't believe he's gone. Only 24 years old and a once in a generational talent. Prayers and thoughts out to his family, friends,and marlins organization.

I'm at the A's last home game right now (lol why) and I just heard about it when we had a moment of silence for him. Sent chills down my spine. He's the same age as I am...so incredibly sad.

Yeah thats really awful. He was a super talented young pitcher, definitely the cornerstone of the Marlins rotation for years to come. Potentially Cy Young/ Hall of Fame level talent but yeah man, really sad.

Fernandez had announced on Instagram last week that his girlfriend is pregnant. The Marlins announced during Sunday's news conference that the couple was expecting a baby girl.

That Dee Gordon home run was absolutely crazy.

The fact that that was Gordon's first HR of the year, too.


The Diaz grand slam was pretty special--he and Fernandez grew up down the street from each other in Cuba.
