Keli McGregor, a former football star who was president of the baseball Colorado Rockies since 2001, was found dead in a Salt Lake City hotel earlier today.

McGregor was only 49 years old, and his death has sent a shockwave throughout Major League Baseball tonight.

Rockies chairman and CEO Charlie Monfort, who was with McGregor on a business trip in Salt Lake City when McGregor was found dead in his hotel room Tuesday morning, spoke for the organization, and spoke from the heart.

McGregor was 48. He is survived by his wife, Lori, and four children.

Salt Lake City Police Det. Rick Wall said officers were called to the Grand America Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City around 9 a.m. MT Tuesday morning. When associates were unable to reach McGregor. Wall said members of the fire department and paramedics were unable to revive McGregor, who was in Salt Lake City with Monfort and executive vice president Greg Feasel.

Wall said there was no suspicion of foul play and McGregor's death was "consistent with natural causes." The investigation has been turned over to the Utah State Medical Examiner's Office, which is standard in such cases.

His passing is a huge loss to the world of sports. Tonight my thoughts are with his family and freinds.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
