Keep fighting, Ryno.
That reads like a guy that knows his time on earth is coming to an end soon. He was my favorite player growing up. Sad to see
This sounds like Ryno for “I’m fighting like hell but the prognosis is bad.” Absolutely sucks. One of the all time great people to play the game.
Get well soon, Ryno!
This very much sounds like a soft way to tell us it’s bad and he’s focusing on quality vs. quantity. In his shoes, I’d likely do the same. Ryno truly one of a kind.
Also, fuck cancer.
Damn that doesn’t sound good.
We miss you at Wrigley, Ryno! You will always be in our hearts, our memories of you are cherished, our support is unwavering. Be strong, fight like hell friend!
Not a good sounding update. Shame
He’s been so taciturn his whole career, it makes it almost harder to hear him speak from his heart at all. I hope he finds strength in the outpouring of love and support he’s been getting.
Fuck cancer. Pull through Ryno!
I would like a miracle to happen and for Ryno to get all better really fast
Oh no..i had been wondering. Keep fighting Ryno!
We’ll always love you, Ryno. A big reason I learned to love baseball at such a young age. Keep fighting.
Watching Espys now and I was hoping Ryno was gonna come out for the Jimmy V and say he’s cancer free again. Love Ryno, one of the best to put on the Cubs uniform.
🙏 to Ryno and his family.
I’m hoping I’m just assuming incorrectly and overreacting, but my heart sank when I read this. It just wasn’t Ryno’s usual optimistic self. I’ve dealt enuf with cancer personally and professionally to know patients can have some pessimistic low times that have nothing to do with their prognosis bc chemo & radiation are a bitch. Hopefully he’s just having a tough time right now but will fight his way through it. Till then, pray pray pray🙏
Aww I have his baseball card on the top of a pile on the dinner table – surfaced a set I was given as a fan giveaway at a game in the 80s, he was always my favorite. So sweet to hear he’s still around and watching the games wow
My favorite player of all time. The reason I love baseball and the Cubs. Breaking my heart.
This is so sad. I hope he gets to see one more great season.
F cancer. Let’s go, Ryno!
Fuck cancer.
We all love you Ryno.
Good man, Ryne Sandberg. Hope he gets past this evil illness.
In 1984 or 85 I got a chance to catch and hit balls with Ryno and few other players from the Cubs, on the Wrigly diamond.
I had won a contest from Sylvan Learning centers for some reason, I can’t clearly remember why.
He was a hero to many kids my age during his time on the field. All I can say is, keep fighting if you can or want to, and also enjoy a full retirement and time with you family. You deserve it.
Ryno was my hero and is a class act. Hate cancer so much. Never give up!
His hall of fame speech was one of the greatest moments I’ve listened to. Ryno i wish you a miracle
Just because you choose to not be on blood thinners, or stool softeners, or steroids, or have tubes… Just because you’re tired of the face in the mirror not being you…
You’re not giving up the fight. You’re passing the torch, and we fight after you’re gone, forever. Put that shit on my back, bro, my legs won’t buckle. And together we move forward.
That does not sound good. Hang in there Ryno, go win one for this guy
F cancer. That’s all.
I’m named after this man. Always will be appreciative of that.
This breaks my heart! Flew in last summer when they revealed his statue. My heartthrob when I was 13, my hero at 53. He’s the reason I bleed Cubs blue.
