Blue Jays pitcher Joe Kennedy died yesterday at his home in Florida.
"Kennedy collapsed at home and was taken to the nearest hospital" reported police officers. Kennedy was only 28 years old and was 43-61 over a course of seven seasons with Tampa Bay, Colorado, Oakland, Arizona and Toronto. He had a career ERA of 4.79 in 222 appearances.
Kennedy played 9 games with Toronto last season and finished 1-0 also playing with Oakland and Arizona earlier in the season.
"We are shocked and terribly saddened by the passing of Joe Kennedy.I offer the deepest condolences and prayers to his wife Jami and son Steffen" said Toronto Blue Jays CEO and President Paul Godfrey. Kennedy was filed as a free agent at the end of the season and the Jays had intention to re-sign him.
I hope that his family is okay and his safe after this tragedy.
