His last real year in AAA he hit 17 HR, hit .293, .899 OPS. He would have only been 25 years old.
Did he just give up?

He started getting injured and other guys passed him by. The Royals let him go and eventually he decided to go to college instead.
I thought the story was pretty good if you have an Athletic subscription and want to read it.
