    He's died tonight from an aneurysm.

    Prayers for his family.

    Aprapos of nothing, but weren't the Niekros going to be replacement players at one point? I want to say yes, but I'm struggling to remember.

    FYI, there's also a thread on Joe on the Sports & News board.

    Wonder if they will line his coffin with sandpaper.

    It wasn't sandpaper, it was a nail file. Knuckleball pitchers need to keep their fingernails done.
