Just saw that myself. I thought it was a classy move on his part to retire as a Blue Jay.

I read that he was intentionally diving down at the water trying to make cool Facebook and Instagram clips. Mess with the bull...

For a period of time the guy was unquestionably the best pitcher in baseball. RIP.

Left a bit more to be desired as a pilot.

Well he did have over 700 flight hours prior to the crash. His plane was named after his dad who was a commercial airline pilot.

reports popping up that he was seen showing off and flying extremely low moments before the crash occurred. he's not the first person to get cocky doing something that he felt comfortable with, happens all the time. still a shame it ended up costing him his life.
