Died in a motorcycle accident.

Oh man, sorry to hear about that.

He was the biggest name in 2008 bowman draft - a redemption card but a huge chase.

Even his contenders auto was a big chase.

Wow that is horrible to hear

My first big prospecting success. Always liked him

That Pineda trade for Montero was a wild one when it happened

Wow! So young, that’s so awful

Doug Martin an old RB for the Tampa Bay Bucs just died too.

Way too young for both of these guys

Can hardly believe he was only 35. His Bowman craziness seemed ages ago.

His 2012 Topps Update RC was a really really similar looking swinging photo as Mike Trout's in 2011. I heard he was a good guy too, so sad.

Still remember when a scout called him out for being out of shape, eating too many icea cream sandwiches, RIP.
