Dear @BusterPosey, you are a rare bird.

You have what most of us MLB players never did, true perspective. You didn’t bow down & worship the game of baseball as if it were your God. In the eyes of @SFGiants fans, you walked on water but to you, it was just a game you loved to… pic.twitter.com/aPrmHrsPTu

Say it ain’t so! I respect him so much for walking away to be with his family. One of the best signal callers to handle a pitching staff I’ve ever seen. It’s been 13 years since he won my Catchers Award, he’s an award winner again. What a career! Happy retirement @BusterPosey!

Buster Posey did a lot of great things during his career, but throwing the ball into Jake Peavy’s glove might just be his finest moment pic.twitter.com/wSgJxtENY0
