Johnny Cueto’s beloved horse died from eating poisonous grasshoppers

Johnny Cueto

Johnny Cueto shared the sad news on Instagram this week that his beloved horse Popeye had died. The death of his pet has affected the pitcher and was a topic of conversation at San Francisco Giants spring training on Thursday.

According to The Athletic’s Andrew Baggarly, Cueto said that Popeye died from eating poisonous grasshoppers.

This isn’t the first time there has been a tragic death for one of Cueto’s horses. Back in 2016, his previous horse in the Dominic Republic, also named Popeye, died.

What a tough way for Cueto to enter the season.
