Luis Valbuena, 33, is now bat flipping in heaven.

Can someone please check on Andy?

Flipping something much bigger than a bat proved fatal.

Looks like he re-upped with the Angels.

They also refused to use my suggested headline: "Valbuena re-signs with the angels"

Per ESPN (http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/25474553/luis-valbuena-jose-castillo-killed-car-crash-caused-bandits):

QuoteLeague president Juan Jose Avila told Union Radio that he was evaluating the possibility of forbidding players to travel in private cars to move between games, saying if the players had been on the team bus, "nothing would have happened to them."

Venezuelan teams tend to travel in buses protected by security forces.
