#22he definitely knew. in fact many sources say he leaned of it on his way to the stadium today. So probably early
but it's Edinson Volquez, audience can't connect with him. Guarantee if it was Matt Harvey's dad they'd be mentioning it every 5 secondsComment -

#30Volquez is 31 yrs old and is a happily married man with twin daughters. Its not like he's 8 yrs old. This news probably has no effect on him professionally. In fact, I bet he arranges the funeral so that he wont miss his next start.Comment -

If this guy had lost his daughter or his wife, then it would be a much different story. But a parent isnt even much of a story.Comment -

#34I don't care how old or mature somebody is, losing a father could easily get on somebodies head and give them trouble concentrating. A pitcher especially needs that concentration imo.Comment -
