Former Brooklyn Dodger Preacher Roe dies

Awful news for me to read about tonight. He was one of my favorite old time Dodgers. His best year was in 1951 when he went 22-3 for Brooklyn. And as Jim stated, he'll live on in Total Classics. R.I.P. Mr Roe and my condolences to your family.

dang. i just added him to my roster too.

i never got to see him pitch, but i fondly remember the first time i heard his name and thought it was a joke. i called him preacher JOE for the longest time too, but only because i was in denial that his name belonged to a baseball player.
