In 2024, they found a tumor, thankfully benign. He is now facing pain in the same place. They're being very careful (and close-lipped), but it doesn't look good. They won't let him pitch for a month or so, and then they will re-evaluate.

He was having a terrific season, too. Best pitcher on the team. He's a great kid; I hope he's going to be okay.
