The 64-year-old Sandberg said Monday in a release put out by the Baseball Hall of Fame that he has started treatment.

“I am surrounded by my loving wife Margaret, our incredibly supportive family, the best medical care team, and our dear friends,” Sandberg said. “We will continue to be positive, strong, and fight to beat this. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time for me and my family.”

Wish Rhino all the best and hope he beats it. Loved watching him play, and my very first Sports video game was Ryne Sandberg Super Bases Loaded.

Seems like most men around that age are destined to get it.

Definitely wish him the best and will be praying. Was diagnosed with prostate cancer myself and was blessed that it was addressed before it metastasized. The doc told me after the surgery that the cancer was about to start spreading and if I had waited a few more months, we would have been having a different conversation.

I remember when Ryan Sandberg signed the highest paid contract in MLB back in 1992. $30.5 million for 5 years.

My urologist said almost every single man on Earth, if he lived long enough, would get prostate cancer. Key is monitoring and early detection.
