    Buster:
    We miss you much! Praying for a speedy recovery and for you to find a way to stay positive. Bummer that we won’t see you play this year, but we know you’ll come back stronger and more determined. Get some rest, Champ — you’ll need it for your recovery and for the little ones on the way!

    Buster, we’ll miss you on the field but we’ll keep voting for you for the all star game because you deserve to be there. Hope you can make an appearance if you get voted in. Good luck on your rehab, we’ll look forward to seeing you play next spring!

    Hey Buster, i just wanted you to know that im dedecating my whole softball summer season to YOU! My whole entire team is hard-core giants fans, and we’re each a player on the team? Im you, im #28 and the starting catcher 🙂 and my best friend is Brian, she’s #38 and a pitcher. But i got customized elbow sweatbands that say “4 BUSTER” on them, and im really hoping i can go to spring training this year and im gonna wear them there. Also, on February 3rd, me and my friend MET YOU. You are such a nice guy and really tall compared to me (hey, im only 5’2 1/2 haha) also, i was wearing a Giants hat embroidered with “I ❤ Buster" on it and you said it was cool….i pretty much died, no joke. But anyway, i just wanna say GET WELL REEEAAALLLLLLYYYYY SOON PLEASEEE because we love you and a Buster only comes around once in a lifetime 🙂

    Adversity makes one stronger and I know this will be true for you and the Giants. Hopefully the Giants can win a World Series for Buster this year. Get well soon and congratulations on your upcoming twin girls.

    Buster!!! You are the reason why The San francisco Giants made it to the World Series last year. YOU are the reason we won! I still can’t believe that you have been injured, in the middle of your sophomore year, but we will miss you dearly, and we cannot cannot wait for you to get back!!!! Anyways, maybe this is a blessing in disguise because you will able to be there and spend time with your new family 🙂 Go Giants! And we can’t wait for next year!!

    Buster,

    I’m praying for a quick and speedy recovery for you. The rest of the season won’t be the same without you behind the plate. I can’t wait to see you back in uniform.

    Best wishes,

    Buster – doesn’t seem fair that things like this happen to such nice guys like you. But you & the Giants will undoubtedly be stronger in the long run because of this. Get well fast, we’ll miss you. Go Giants!!

    Gerald,
    The Giants are mostly rudderless without you, no sleight intended on Eli Whiteside. The energy is low, and I hope to see you in the dugout soon cheering the team on. We need a rule change, seeing catchers get blown up is NOT part of baseball – it’s past time for a change. You are the future, we can’t wait to see you return.

    Buster, besides your clutch 2 strike hitting, your incredible consistency at the plate, the way you have handled a relatively young pitching staff, throwing out base stealers and blocking pitches in the dirt with your body, what I believe most fans will miss is your love of the game and what you represent for the game, truth, the spirit of fair competition and the integrity of the game itself.. The isn’t a person on this earth, fan or not, that doesn’t wish you the speediest recovery. Go Giants!

    I love you buster! its not the same watching the giants games anymore, i mean i still watch them of course, but it makes me sick to my stomach! when you got hurt i cried myself to sleep! you were the main reason i started to pay so much attention! i have always watched the giants but i just recently started paying attention to stats and everything because of you! and i know all of yours! everyone at my school knows im obsessed with you, they all call me Mrs. Posey:) A lot of my friends are big fans of yours too, but I know pretty much everything there is to know about you! They ask me any question, and I can answer it. Except one time they asked me what your great grandmas name is, I didn’t know that one. your an amazing baseball player! But I’m sure you hear that all the time. I went to the second game against the A’s and that was my first game. It was the best day of my life! I asked one of the people who worked at AT&T park if there was a way I could meet you and he just laughed at me. I lost my voice cheering for you! I tried taking pictures of you but my hands were shaking like crazy! I went insane cuz you were the first run in, and then you hit in the second run with your double! I ended up taking like 200 though. I made a sign for the game that said “Posey’s Future Wife” and now it’s hanging up in my room! And for my birthday this year I get to redo my room in black and orange and I get to get a bunch of giants stuff. I know how you feel with the torn ligaments in your knee, same thing happened to me! And it still hurts when I play softball. Next year I get to be my high school teams catcher:) I really hope you read this, I’ve been trying for so long to send you mail, but I can never find an address. I’m not going to write everything I want to say to you because I don’t even know if your going to read this. But if you do, I really want to talk to you! And if I haven’t mentioned this before, I love you!

    Hey Buster,

    Just want you to know that on May 28th I bought a Posey T-shirt (couldn’t afford a jersey — sorry man!) to somehow through the eternal mysteries that I am thinking of you. Can’t tell you how many people I ran into that day in Giants gear and we all just kind of locked eyes and nothing needed to be said (although sometimes we did) — it was evident that all Giants fans are feeling your pain. We love you — get better and never ever think that we aren’t thinking of you on a daily basis. Also, I remember when Joe Montana had back surgery, there was speculation that it was career ending. It wasn’t, he came back better than ever and so will you.

    Dear Buster – you are the heart and soul of the Giants, and without you, it’s just not the same. I have been a Giant fan all my life, and your injury truly broke my heart and I cried for you. But you are strong and so positive, and you will be back….better than ever!!! You and your family are always in my thoughts; and in the coming months, you will be thought of DAILY by all Giant fans (don’t ever forget that!!). We have the BIGGEST Giant fans in Fresno, and you are so very loved and admired here! Godspeed, Buster!!

    We wish you a speedy and full recovery, Buster. Your presence on the field will be missed, however, your spirit will be there as the games are played. We have no doubt we will see you in the dugout just as soon as the doc gives the okay. Your presence there will be a great boost for the team and the fans!

    We are forever Giants fans and look forward to your return in 2012 – we will see you in Scottsdale next March!

    Hope you recover soon, but take your time to heal properly so you’ll truly be as good as new when you get back on the field. Got tickets to see Tim pitch in St. Louis tomorrow night after missing you guys in Chicago’s rain out. Wish we could’ve seen you too. Thanks for all you’ve done for us.

    As you recover, do some “time traveling” into the future- which is bright with a healthy body, more Giant’s baseball, and most importantly, a great life with your family and friends. We are all hurting with you, and miss seeing you behind the plate; but in the big picture, it’s a bump in the road. Enjoy the time off as soon as you can!
