    Wow... How does one pitch after hearing that kind of news?

    It looks like he's warming up in the bullpen.

    Well there has been no report about whether he has been fighting a long illness, or maybe they are estranged.

    I'm pretty sure a family member would've contacted him. It is 2015, there's no way he doesn't know.

    ken rosenthal tweeted that they won't mention it on air while he's pitching

    sports center tweeted that Edinson learned of his fathers passing before game though

    100% erroneous.
    There is ZERO chance he doesn't know. Who would ever have the right not to tell him that? LOL morons. He knows, trust me.

    he 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 seconds

    Volquez 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.

    Plus, its life. Parents die all the time.

    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.

    I 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.
