Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, citing a ‘major-league source,’ reports Blue Jays LHP Joe Kennedy died Friday morning at his home in Florida.
According to Rosenthal, the cause of death has not been determined.
The 28-year old left-hander was 43-61 with a 4.79 ERA in his seven-year career.
…r.i.p. joe…

i just saw this on the bottom line of ESPN….thats very sad….RIP
wow!
what is going on with young athletes dying.
what was the cause of his death?
ESPN said the cause is not yet known.
rip joe.
im just wondering, if we wake up one morning and hear that barry bonds passed away, what would the reaction be?
Huh. Interesting how I actually would’ve liked the Mets to sign him.
Mitchell Investigation?
Geez.
That comment is beneath contempt. To even imply it somehow relates to the Mitchell Investigation or question if it relates to it is both classless and disgusting.
Sadly, 28 year old athletes have been known to die of natural causes, or far less sinister reasons than which you implied.
Show some respect and class.
I disagree. It’s not very considerate but it’s not as bad as you’re making it out to be.
On another forum I go to, a White Sox fan posted “Joe Kennedy HE GONE!” (The ChiSox play-by-play guy says He Gone whenever someone whiffs). Now that is classless and disgusting.
He’s right, though. That post kind of came out wrong.
But all these young pitchers dying really makes you wonder.
Sadly, when an athlete dies this young, this is the first thought to go through people’s minds. That’s just the world we live in today, at least as it relates to sports.
Wow, that’s just really really sad. RIP :(
I knew Joe. I used to work in baseball with some teams that Joe played on. He was a great guy. He was fun loving, enjoyed life and had fun playing the game. Knowing Joe the way I did, I would not even think that he did steroids. My condolences to his family. RIP Joe!
This isn’t important in the context of things, but Kennedy was claimed off waivers by the Diamondbacks last season, released and later signed with the Blue Jays.
Kennedy has not been a member of the Athletics since August 4th of this season.
Wow. I have a bobble-head of Joe for his days with the Hudson Valley Renegades minor league team. I’ve always liked him throughout his Major League career, although I’ve never really been able to follow him. RIP
RIP Joe
