    Buster! I was there that first day you went 3 for 4 against the D-Backs. Greatest ball game I’ve ever gone to.
    In return, I’ve got a joke for you, to help you recover.
    Here goes:

    So a guy is in the waiting room of the maternity ward, and the doctor comes out and says
    “Sir, I’m really sorry. We just delivered your son, and he has no arms and no legs, and no body. All he has is a head…”
    And the father was sad, but he raised his son and loved him just the same.
    21 years went by, and he decided to take his son to a bar for his first drink. So he brought his son in and propped him up on his neck on the counter and said
    “Hey, bring my son a drink!”
    So they brought him out one of those big tropical long island iced teas and put it up to the kid’s face with a straw.
    The second he drank it, a body popped out of him, and everyone was amazed and started cheering and said
    “Hey, get him another drink!”
    So they brought out another one and put it up to his face. The second he finished it, two arms and two legs popped out of him, and everyone went nuts cheering again.
    By now he was getting kinda wobbly because it was a lot to drink, but he wanted to try out his new legs, so he got up and staggered around, and hobbled out the door, and was promptly run over by a truck.
    The father screamed and cried and buried his face in his hands, and the bartender just said
    “Man… he shoulda quit while he was a head…”

    I was so sad to see this happen to you! I’ll miss watching you this season, but given your work ethic I have no doubt that you’ll be back on the field as quickly as possible. Stay strong and remember that you have tons of support in Bay Area!

    Buster! I was so bummed when I found out you got hurt. You are one of my top 5 favorite players and I can’t believe you won’t be playing for at least 2 months. I’m praying for you and for a quick recovery! Get better soon. Rebekah

    You’re that All American Boy that everyone admires for his drive, passion, and persistence, Buster (on & off the field). I’m sure you will apply those great human qualities towards your speedy healing & recovery. Those things make you who you are as an SF Giant and as a person! Come back with ALL your MIGHT!!! Can’t wait to see you play again!

    Best wishes to you & your growing family!

    Buster! I was really happy when I heard that you may have read mine! I really do look up to you! And when I watched the game yesterday, I was really upset that you weren’t out there! But I do have faith in the giants that they can pull through. I really really hope that you get better soon! You’re the best player out there! I’ve been praying for you to get better! 🙂 love you lots! 🙂

    Buster- you have been such an inspiration to so many, young and old. You are the example of what a decent, hard working player should be to all our youth. You twins will be blessed to have you guideing them through life. My prayers to you for a quick recovery and rehabilitation. Don’t get discouraged by the amount of time it may take, you will come back stronger than ever! God Bless! Robin from Stockton

    Hope the break was relatively clean. I cracked my growth plate in my ankle as well as other bones around it and the lower parts of the shin bone when I was a bit younger. It sucked, but I knew I’d have a part of my body that will actually heal stronger than it was ever originally. A small blessing when it comes to broken bones, they heal stronger than the original. It was hard to trust my ankle afterwords, but I had to. I broke it playing organized football and then a year later I was back on the field. But the scar tissue that builds up while in the cast is no fun when it breaks loose during physical therapy. I thought that was the worst of the whole thing. But I got a cool scar and a story out of it plus I can do everything I used to be able to before the injury. Keep your head up! Looking forward to your return next spring. GO GIANTS!!!

    I only have two Giants shirts that have players names on them. One says MAYS, the other one says POSEY. I have faith that you will come back strong! Listen to the doctors and savor the extra time with your new family 🙂

    hey buster,

    i know that you’re probably still processing your injury (as is the entire giants family) and that you’re frustrated (to put it mildly) about not being able to play the sport you love with the most amazing team (and organization) in baseball. but while there’s a long road of rehabilitation ahead, i hope it is evident to you just the sheer outpouring of support you have not only from giants fans, but from baseball fans everywhere. you are truly a special part of baseball and we are all rooting for your quick and proper recovery. take your time, do it right, and we look forward to having #28 back in the lineup. baseball without buster posey is just not as good as baseball with buster posey.

    go giants!

    Get well soon Buster! I am sure you know how much your fans love you, and that includes me. I was there at the game when it happened and it brought tears to my eyes! No one wants to see you hurt, you don’t deserve it! You have been a great addition to our amazing team and I really hope you heal just right and can return to us soon. I hope you aren’t in any pain either. Enjoy spending time at home with your wife and soon to be twins 🙂
