Trey Mancini is Cancer-Free, Ready for 2021 Spring Training

Orioles outfielder Trey Mancini said on Tuesday he is ready for 2021 Spring Training after missing the entire 2020 season due to Stage III colon cancer.

Mancini said on Tuesday his most recent blood work showed "no tumor DNA," per MLB.com's Joe Trezza.

The 28-year-old outfielder underwent surgery in March to remove a malignant tumor in his colon. He began chemotherapy in April, detailing his battle in an essay for The Players' Tribune.

"To have something like cancer suddenly just completely dominating every other thought that was going through my head was … something I never thought I’d ever experience," Mancini wrote.
