He was the most unpredictable and electric players I have ever got to watch on the diamond, and I will always be thankful that I had the opportunity to watch him.
Thank you for everything, Ace.

We'll always have Game 6 of 2014 WS ... I was as hard on Ace as anyone but I loved the guy. Truly think he was our next bullpen cyborg. Hopefully Glass and the Royals make sure his family get the majority of that contract.
