Garrett Anderson Passes away


Garrett Anderson Passes away

Really good player for a lot of years, mainly an Angel but also was a Dodger, haven't heard why, but Him, Tim Salmon and Darrin Erstad or Jim Edmonds were a formidable OF.

53 is too young

Re: Garrett Anderson Passes away

He was a key member of the '02 Championship for the correctly named Anaheim Angels. Yes, I'm 1st and foremost a Dodger fan, but the Dodgers were out of the playoffs that season and they were playing the hated Giants in the Series. He did play his last season in 2010 for the Dodgers but hit .181 in limited action. A really solid player for many seasons for the Halos. The LA Times reported that he died of a heart attack at the WAY to young age of 53.

Re: Garrett Anderson Passes away

Very sad. Way too young. One of those players who's somewhat "forgotten" by the casual baseball fan, but was definitely a great player and probably just below HOF level, but certainly on the Angels Mt. Rushmore.

Re: Re: Garrett Anderson Passes away

Amen on the way too young. He is career leader in several Angels categories.
