LA Angels: Luis Valbuena’s death investigated as foul play

As unfortunate as that news is for the LA Angels and MLB community, reports are starting to come out outlying the possibility of foul play involving a violent robbery. While no conclusions have been made as of yet the evidence seemingly points to foul play.

Luis Valbuena and Jose Castillo, two extremely talented and respected MLB athletes, were found dead Thursday night (12/7/2018) at the scene of a car accident in Venezuela. However, things aren’t looking to be as simple as an “accident” in this terrible event. Reports have come out showing signs of foul play with the two MLB professionals being targeted in a robbery scheme that has sadly become standard practice for the criminal element of Venezuela.
