03/22: Nettles has Prostate Cancer
George King reports that Graig Nettles was diagnosed with prostate cancer the day before Thanksgiving. Nettles' brother, Jim, had been diagnosed and called him to say he should get checked.
Doctors had wanted to do the surgery in January, but Nettles wanted to go to spring training, which they said was fine, since it is slow moving. He'll have the operation on April 8. Our thoughts are with him and those close to him.
