2018?  Time flies...

Isn't he too old for that?

I believe he was part of the Doolittle trade before that incident

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

You're right....I had to look it up.  I seemed to recall reading somewhere that he was a student at the time, my bad

Wiki page says "Early life
Luzardo was born to Venezuelan parents[1] in Lima, Peru,[2] although Luzardo identifies as Venezuelan.[3] He moved to South Florida at the age of one and later attended Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. He graduated in 2016. He was late for a practice at the school on the day of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in 2018, and was warned to stay away.[4]"

[hohoho]

Per wikipedia, he was late for baseball practice on the day of the incident and warned to stay away.

Ok…I’m convinced. Lane Thomas is our CF for the foreseeable future.

But some people like to associate themselves with moments like this.

actually, it was on 2/14/18. I think he was getting in pre-camp throwing at his old HS field. Not that strange.

If anyone who can make it to tomorrow's matinee wants to go, hit me up.  My evil plan to play hooky wound up being a bust.

there was an article link on wikipedia but I couldn't read it because of adblock but you'd think he would be in ST by then

to clarify, I meant valentine's day, not feb of 2014.

yeah but pitchers and catchers usually report second week of Feb

[welch]

FP, back in which day?

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

I lived close to Marjorie Stoneman Douglas (the naturalist/author, not the school) back in the day.  She was like 100+ and was probably the only person in Miami to live without air conditioning (by choice, anyways).

Baldonado's aight

It was his last outing that was disastrous

I grew up in Lake Worth without air-conditioning. Not by choice, though.

yes. But he was a minor leaguer and I think their camps open later.

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Okert very clearly is not using the sticky stuff

[hohoho]

He is a grad of the school. He got a text message warning from coach Todd Fitzgerald and also texted warnings to others. He has also raised funds for victims. Why would he go into easily checked details if it is not true?

[JCA-CrystalCity]

Was that the second one from this diaz or do they have one apiece?

[hohoho]

1 Diaz 2 hrs.

Two walked-in runs against the Marlins is reason to shoot in the air and burn stuff after this season

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Marlins are better tankers

[welch]

Marlins must have rented their bullpen from the Nats.
