Sad story, but I remember Ventura as a head case as well. He was actually about on his way out of KC last year because he's been in some fights with other teams after hitting batters and I think his KC teammates were getting tired of his antics as well.
 
Talented kid dies in a car wreck and two guys on Yappi still want to be negative and call him a head case. Get some perspective guys.

I suppose you had the world all figured out at 25? You were totally mature with no issues to work out?
