Only 44 years old! "eek
I have always thought of him as a great ballplayer. He certainly meant a lot to the people of Minnesota and the Minnesota Twins, which he spent his entire career with, but retired early due to glaucoma, in 1995.
Too young!

He was an amazing player that took time to talk to children and I will miss him, as he truly was one of the nice stars that never let his success change him.

I used to follow the Blue Jays - up until the strike - and I remember Kirby Pucket. He made me think of a cuddly teddy bear. How sad for his fiancee and family.
