Well, this is about a big a bummer as you can get. Cubs legend Ryne Sandberg, who was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer in January and shared in August that no cancer was detected in his most recent scans, announced Tuesday that the cancer has returned and spread to other organs. I’m honestly getting a little choked up thinking about this, so I’m just going to share the post and ask that everyone reading this offers up all the good vibes and positive energy you can muster.

“To my Chicago Cubs, National Baseball Hall of Fame, the city of Chicago, and all my loyal fans, I want to share an update on my prostate cancer,” read the caption of his Instagram post.
