Orioles' Trey Mancini Reveals Colon Cancer Diagnosis, Doubts He'll Play in 2020

Baltimore Orioles star Trey Mancini doesn't expect to play in 2020 if the season does happen amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Mancini was diagnosed with colon cancer in March and had a malignant tumor removed. The 28-year-old slugger wrote Tuesday in a piece for The Players' Tribune that he has Stage III colon cancer and is currently undergoing chemotherapy.

Mancini added: "My treatment will take six months—every two weeks for six months. If baseball returns in 2020, it will probably be without me."
