      Tyler Skaggs was pitching pretty well this year. Which is a small thing compared to dying at 27, but a shame for him he didn't get to finish a good season.

      Are we not supposed to respect a man's life's work?

      The kid just passed away, Dan. And the point of his life was not baseball.

      He was 27. I'd say it was a damn big part. Why is it bad to offer something specific about a life? Guy I RT'd earlier who knew him was talking about how much he'd been looking forward to pitching at Dodger Stadium.

      Whether or not he was “pitching pretty well this year” will not be why he is remembered by his loved ones.

      You prefer bland strings of cliche that make no effort to refer to the deceased individually? That's just never worth writing.

      What can I say? I don't do bland & soulless. I give a damn. I say what I think. I try to have some empathy. That baffles some people, I guess.

          Oh please, everyone offended that Dan commented about the man’s pitching only knows about the man because he’s a pitcher. It’s ironic for those same people to be outraged at what was a positive comment that they could actually relate to. James Dean is not discussed as a son.

          If you had tirelessly worked on a craft for 20 years and died right in your prime, you wouldnt want people to mention it? That would offend you?

          No you do rude and clueless! And 4 hours later you are still trying to defend the indefensible. Give it up!

          Your tweet comes off as detached, soulless, and without empathy. 'Bummer that he didn't get to finish his season' is a shitty take, even for you

          Not sure empathy is the right word here.

          I would say it’s the exact wrong word.
