    Mr. Buster Posey:

    Me and my wife wish you the best recovery. Do not come back until you are 100%. We would rather see you next year 100% than to possibly hurt yourself by coming back too soon.

    My entire family has been praying for you since your injury. I can only imagine how much it must hurt to be taken out of the game this early in the season. You’re such a great player and you always bring excitement to the game. Be sure to get well soon. Looking forward to seeing you back next season. I’ll keep praying. GO GIANTS!!!=)

    I’m glad your surgery went well and hope you have less pain soon. I also hope that there will be a change in base running training and team philosophy on plays at home plate that reduces this type of collision. One run, even one win is not worth a season ending injury for the catcher or the runner. You’re in our thoughts, we miss you!

    Of course it’s awful, but maybe it saved to from an even worse knock to the head that would end your career (ankles heal, brains ….not as much). It will also allow you time with your wife as you begin your new family in August at home. We all love you Buster and will be there for you next season.

    Buster, you are the one who inspired me to be a catcher. I used to hate catcher, until I saw you play. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

    Decades ago, when I was your age, there was a popular saying going around, called “The Desiderata.” One of the lines I keep with me all the time is “No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.” Even off the field all baseball fans will be looking to you for inspiration and leadership. It’s a heavy burden, but you will find the strength to carry it. Namaste, Buster.

    Buster,
    I have the newspaper picture of “The Rookie” from last year’s newspaper and had taped it on top of a picture in the family room and it’s been there ever since…I will not take it down!

    Wish you a speedy recovery and see you next year!!!

    Buster!! I can’t watch the collision any more! They keep showing it over and over again. The second it happened I knew it was your ankle 😦 I had a similar accident a little over a year ago playing soccer where my left ankle did the exact same thing. I have 6 screws and a plate in my ankle and ligaments on the inside were all torn. Three months after my surgery I was able to go back out and play goalie again. I know you can get back out there too. You are an incredible athlete and I hate seeing this happen to you. Take care of yourself! List to your doctors, ice and elevate and don’t push it! You’ll get back out there soon and all us Giants fans will waiting for you 🙂
    P.S. Congrats on the twins! I’m sure you’ll be a great dad :]

    Buster,
    Doubtful you will read this due to the overwhelming support and all the get well wishes, but anyway…You are an idol to many baseball fans and players alike, whether Giants fans or not. You talent behind the plate and at bat is deeply going to be missed this season, but I think even more so than that will be the presence you bring to every game. We need you back buddy. This year is gonna be tough. Get better.

    Buster Posey, when I heard you were hurt I was so shocked, but I knew you would be determined to get better. I saw you in spring training in Arizona and you then inspired me to be a catcher (I play softball). Now I’m the starting catcher for my team and improve every day. I want to thank you so much for being such an inspiring and determined human being. My dad and I have always been HUGE Giants fans. I’m glad to hear you’re surgery went well – and that you’re doing better.
