By all accounts Lidle was a guy with a big heart who was a great teammate and an even better person. Death is always a tragedy but an untimely death is the most unfortunate situation imaginable. I send my deepest condolences to his family, friends, and teammates and I hope that there will be no more unnecessary heartbreak resulting from this incident.
As a Yankee fan it seems like God is just kicking the entire Yankees' organization in the nuts right now, but I guess we all have our mountains to climb in life. Unfortunately it seems like some mountains are a lot taller than others, and some are just too much to overcome. As I said, hopefully any further tragedy associated to this incident is as limited as possible, and my deepest condolences to the victim's family members.
Let's do it for Lidle in 07...
