Someone posted last year about Sox prospect Westmoreland having a brain tumor. Here's an update from NESN:
How is Ryan Westmoreland doing? Is he playing any games yet?
Westmoreland continues to make progress in his recovery from brain surgery last spring, but there is still some road left to travel. He is rehabbing in Fort Myers, performing more baseball activities all the time. Westmoreland, considered by many the top positional prospect in the system before doctors discovered a cavernous malformation in his brain, has yet to get into an actual game. However, he has not experienced any setbacks since beginning his comeback on the field. Let's hope we see him in a box score soon.
