I am a huge Mariners fan and watched this kid play every single game he got in this year on television, my son even got a signed Bowman Chrome card of him on his birthday out of a pack and you would have thought he won the lottery! He hit a triple in his first at bat this year with the Mariners and was about 7 for his first 9. He had a ton of talent and from all accounts he was one of the nicest and most teachable young players to come along in years. I am genuinely sad about this and even though I never met Halman, I feel like I knew him. Really unbelievable!
