The last time I wrote about Skip Schumaker, and one of the last times I gave him much thought was when he retired during Spring Training before the 2016 season, just a month and a day after he signed a minor league deal with the Padres. At the time I was working as an office manager (glorified receptionist, if we’re keeping it real), a job that allowed me to do basically whatever I pleased for approximately seven and a half of eight hours, so I hammered out a fair bit of baseball blogging from my desk.
