Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 What could you possibly get for Schoop at the deadline to make that plan worthwhile? Well, the O's got Villar and two prospects at the deadline. If he sucked it up, the one year deal at that price isn't really damaging. If he put up a year like he did in 2017, you probably get something interesting.

A couple of future org guys and a guy who is even shittier than the one we traded away doesn't sound too interesting to me.
Spanky__99 Old-Timey Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 I'd take him at 7.5 million to man 2nd for us next year. Why? Nvm... I've read your reason, it's dumn.
Ray Verified Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 Just saw that Luis Valbuena and former major leaguer Jose Castillo died in a car accident in Venezuela. RIP.
Bobthe4th Old-Timey Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 Just saw that Luis Valbuena and former major leaguer Jose Castillo died in a car accident in Venezuela. RIP. It’s becoming an annual tradition. Didn’t appreciate how badly Valbuena did this year either, he used to be a solid player.

z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 Has it always been this bad in the DR? I know they don't GAF about drinking and driving (not saying that was the case here, just in general) so it going to be higher than Western countries. I just don't remember this when I first started watching baseball, but maybe it was b/c I was less in tune when the prospects were killed. Truly sad stuff going on down there.
Bobthe4th Old-Timey Member Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 Do you write eulogies professionally or just in your spare time? Luis Valbuena lived a reckless life. Well, guys, I think the real lesson here is that there's nothing badass about riding a motorcycle without a helmet.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 Lol what? It was a robbery that went exactly to plan, dummy. I wouldn't say "exactly as planned" They were suppose to stop infront of the rocks not swerve off the road, flip the car and die.

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 Lol Boxy what r u smokin When you rob people you don’t wanna kill them Why not? Venezuela is an every man for himself kinda place and they intentionally caused a crash. Dead people are easy to rob, and they were. Seems to me nothing went wrong for the bad guys.

Laika Community Moderator Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 Plan a basic backroad rock in the road robbery. - accidentally kill celebrities - five star wanted level - get caught, life of being raped in prison “Exactly as planned”

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 Ironic This was a fail on my part, and yes, quite ironic. I'll own that.
