Colorado Rockies President Found Dead

From Rotoworld:

Rockies president Keli McGregor was found dead in a hotel room in Salt Lake City on Tuesday morning.

The cause of death is so far unknown. "We didn't see anything suspicious," Salt Lake detective Rick Wall told the Denver Post Tuesday. "The official cause of death will be investigated by the Salt Lake City Medical Examiner's Office." McGregor was named president of the Rockies back in 2001 and was entering his 17th year with the organization.

He was only 47 years old.
