Short Bio:
Colby Ryan Rasmus (born August 11, 1986 in Columbus, Georgia) is a center fielder in the St. Louis Cardinals organization. Another high school outfielder from the 2005 draft, Rasmus is another exciting young talent with all five tools at his disposal. He played nearly all of 2007 in the Double-A Texas League at age 20 and did much more than hold his own, leading the league in home runs and finishing among the leaders in a slew of other offensive categories. He capped his season with a strong performance for Team USA at the World Cup in Chinese Taipei. He is listed as #5 on the 2008 Baseball America Top 100 Prospects

BaseballTalkPro Outlook
As of March 15, 2008 - Rasmus batting .310 and leads the team with a .500 OBP and has been hammering the ball like there's no tomorrow. He was a non-roster invitee to the Cardinals in Spring Training, 2008 to try to claim a regular spot in the lineup after the Cardinals traded Jim Edmonds on December 15, making the rare jump from AA directly to the majors without having played a game at the AAA level. However, this likely won't happen as the organization has said they'd rather not rush his development.

The spring is usually a cheerful and exciting time for MLB baseball fans but today the community is bearing the bad news that one of the most celebrated pitchers of the modern era has been diagnosed with “curable and “maintainable” colon cancer and will be seeking treatment. Rick Sutcliffe, a fierce pitching righthander was a three-time All-Star and he won the National League Rookie of the Year award in 1979 and the National League Cy Young Award in 1984. Sutcliffe wound up his career with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1994, going 6-4 in an injury-plagued season. He retired with a career record of 171-139, with an ERA of 4.08.

After his retirement from baseball, Sutcliffe became a color commentator for the San Diego Padres on Channel 4 San Diego (1997-2004) and ESPN (1998-present), as well as a minor-league pitching coach in the San Diego Padres system for a couple of seasons. He also broadcasts the World Series for MLB International, where he is teamed with Dave O’Brien, his usual ESPN partner.

Here is the article released in the Associated Press today:

Former Cy Young Award winner Rick Sutcliffe has colon cancer and will undergo chemotherapy and surgery. Sutcliffe, a baseball analyst for ESPN, was diagnosed with a treatable form of cancer after taking a routine test during a physical, the network said Thursday. He said he hopes to return to the network later this year. “I deeply appreciate the support of the ESPN family and my family and friends around the country,” Sutcliffe said in a statement released by the network. Sutcliffe went 171-139 in parts of 18 seasons, retiring in 1994 after pitching for the Dodgers, Indians, Cubs, Orioles and Cardinals. He won the National League Rookie of the Year award in 1979 for Los Angeles and the Cy Young Award in 1984, for the Cubs. He joined ESPN in 1999 and has been an analyst during game telecasts since 2002. He was scheduled to travel to Japan for the season opening games between Boston and Oakland on March 25-26. Sutcliffe will be replaced by Steve Phillips. “Rick is an integral member of our baseball team and we wish him a full recovery,” ESPN vice president of event production Tim Scanlan said. “We will keep him and his family in our thoughts and prayers.”

Here at BaseballTalkPro, we share the wish Rick Sutcliffe and his family all of our prayers and wishes for a speedy recovery.
