RIP Lima Time.
Loved "Lima Time" when he was playing for the Dodgers. The guy always looked like he was having as much fun as someone who just got plucked out of the stands and thrown out on the pitcher's mound. He also won the team's first playoff game in about two decades. Very sad to see a guy with his infectious positive personality go so soon.
RIP
Saw him at the Dodgers-Tigers game on Friday. He looked happy, healthy and like he was having a good time. Then saw the news this morning.
Weird and terrible.
37--wow, that's sad.
Damn, that's too bad. Lima was the worst pitcher that it was impossible not to like anyway. Heart attack at 37. Man.
Someone who truly loved the game. I think he realized how lucky he was to play a kid's game for a living. RIP.
This honestly makes me really sad.
A person dead at 37 is way too young. Especially someone who just seemed to love life like Lima.
This sucks.
Baseball needs more players like Lima. His love for the game was in no way contrived and he was an enjoyable player to watch, whether or not he was performing at a high level. RIP.
It's always surreal to me when athletes pass away at such a young age, especially guys that you grew up watching. Sometimes it's easy to forget that these guys are mortal too...RIP.
