Oscar Taveras’ Family Thanks Fans Via Twitter

It’s been more than three weeks since St. Louis Cardinals prospect Oscar Taveras was killed in a car accident.

Thursday, his family took to social media to thank everyone who left condolences for the late 22-year-old slugger.

“Thanks to all who left a memory or token of appreciation! It means so much,” a family spokesperson posted via Taveras’ Twitter handle. “This twitter handle will be managed by his family until everyone’s item is posted with a personal thanks!”
