Mariners pitching prospect Victor Sanchez died Saturday night, according to a reportout of his native Venezuela.

Sanchez had been in a coma since he was struck in the head by a boat propeller in a swimming accident off the coast of Carupano, Veneuzual on Feb. 13, just two weeks after his 20th birthday.

Sanchez, a 6-foot, 255-pound right-hander, spent three seasons in the Mariners farm system after signing a $2.5 million minor-league contract in 2011.

 

RIP.

This really sucks. I remember really wanting the Jays to sign this guy off the IFA market a few years ago. Had a great name too.

 

Rest in peace.

 

Yes, I remember him. Thats too bad.
