RIP Oscar Taveras [1992-2014]

[XR-7]

I wasn't going to make a thread on this, but it's sad enough that I decided to do it.

Oscar Taveras, 22, was killed in a car accident in the Dominican Republic. He had just returned home after the Cardinals were eliminated in the NLCS. He was out driving his Camaro after some intense rain, which likely had to do with the accident. His 18 year old girlfriend was also killed.

RIP

He's the most recent St. Louis Cardinal to die in mid-contract since Josh Hanrooster in 2007, who was killed in a car accident while driving under the influence of alcohol.

You see, if people lose games, than bad things happen.
If they just let the cardinals win, none of this would have happened.

Ugliest rims ever. Good riddance to the car. Shame about the dude.

With a crash like that, I don't think anything that hit the windshield could be called a "he" anymore.
