Sad. A strange world we live in.

Riverbrian · December 10, 2016

Very Shocking and Very Sad News.

I hurt for his loved ones

Thrylos · December 10, 2016

That's horrible. Sounds like his dad was driving and maybe were other family members in the car.

How awful. Hope the Twins do something for them.

tobi0040 · December 10, 2016

Terrible. Awful news

d-mac · December 10, 2016

This is awful. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

Dr. Evil · December 10, 2016

So very sorry.

DaveW · December 10, 2016

Tragic. Especially when someone is that young and has their whole life ahead of them.

I didn't get to know Landa as well as I would have liked in his time with the Kernels in 2014 and 2015, but you could tell from his constant smile that he loved playing ball and being with his teammates. The only time I ever recall him not smiling was when he was on the mound, where he had one of the great scowls as he pitched.

RIP Yorman and condolences to all of his family, friends and teammates. So tragic.

Simpy tragic, devastating for his family.

theBOMisthebomb · December 10, 2016

So sorry to hear such tragic news.

DaveW · December 10, 2016

Sounds like he was in the passenger seat, 4 or 5 people total in the car, he was the only one who passed away. Single car accident as they hit a downed tree.

I think it's important at times like this to always remember to wear your seat-belt, I'm not going to say Yorman wasn't wearing a seat-belt, but typically when it's a one car accident and one person passes away that is usually the case. Hopefully his team-mates, fans, and friends can learn from this to ensure that no more lives are extinguished to early.

If it turns out he wasn't wearing a seat belt, this story is even more tragic as it would
have been avoidable.

2016 has been a real gut punch.

So tragic. Sad.

Halsey Hall · December 10, 2016

Very sad indeed.

WiesbadenDAN · December 10, 2016

Horrible news, so young and apparently he had a very positive impact on those who knew him. RIP.

Baseball Bat · December 10, 2016

RIP Yorman. So sad

glunn · December 10, 2016

My thoughts go out to his family and friends. So very sad and tragic.

I am wondering if somehow we could extend our condolences to the family, perhaps by going through the Twins. I would like to send flowers.

Squirrel · December 10, 2016

Oh wow ... just catching up with this ...

DocBauer · December 11, 2016

Read this but late to post. Such a tragedy when anyone, especially someone so young, passes away. Especially in such a tragic way. Heartfelt condolences to his family, and the entire Twins family.

RIP Yorman!

This has been a tough year. Me an some of my colleagues have deemed 2016 the "Year of Death".

Besides David Bowie, Leonard Cohen and a lot of other celebrities or artists who have died this year, many more have been lost.

One of my best friends died in June after a battle with cancer. He was a 40 years old. I was aware of his dire circumstances at the end, but it kills a part of you, and a piece of my spirit and essence has mutated forever.

I lost my brother in 2003, he made a bad judgement and fell from a cliff. It haunts and destabilizes me to this day.

It is heavy stuff and I wish Yorman's family the best.

LoDJohn · December 12, 2016

I hate hearing news like this. R.I.P.

TRex · December 12, 2016

Although it sounds like the accident was unavoidable, and Yorman Landa's death was only due to the unlucky placement of a tree branch, isn't it every parent's nightmare to be driving and have an accident that results in the death of one of your children.

My prayers go out for his immediate, as well as Twins', families.

The Bravos de Margarita retired Yorman Landa's number a couple of nights ago...
