A couple of months ago they finally matched with a birth-mother, after multiple failed attempts. The Posey’s have been working through the adoption process for years. I’m proud to be here on this call, listening and supporting today.” He is just supportive and thoughtful and caring, and it is an absolute honor to return that support, and say that i think Buster is making an incredible and thoughtful decision for him and his family, and the one that makes the most sense. When i was hired also, there was one player at the opening press conference, and that was Buster. “I just wanted to reiterate Farhan’s statement of support for Buster. Giants manager Gabe Kapler echoed Zaidi’s sentiments with a message of his own. Zaidi had his one-year-old son in the room with him while on this video call, and even he had a sentimental message for Posey.įarhan Zaidi’s son has a message for Buster Posey /SeJMvW9URs- Taylor Wirth July 10, 2020 I know i speak on behalf of a lot of people in the Giants family that we support you, we’re going to really miss you.” So I never had a chance to publicly thank him for that, and I want to do that now. I had a lot of conversations with him that made the transition for me a lot easier. Personally, people may not know this, but Buster was incredibly supportive of me in my first year with the Giants organization. “On behalf of the entire Giants family and organization, we want to congratulate you and your family, and say we whole-heartedly support your decision. President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi followed up with a personal statement to Posey: It felt like Posey was going to opt out, but his announcement regarding the birth and adoption of the two premature babies gave so much more perspective as to why he was making this decision, a decision that was very important for him and his family. We feel this is the best decision for these babies, and for our family as well.” I’ve decided to opt-out of the 2020 baseball season. And after much discussion with my wife, and doctors, a decision that I’ve wrestled with quite a bit since I knew that this adoption was on the table. The twins were born prematurely, thank God they are doing really well, but they’re going to have to be in the NICU for quite some time. My wife, myself, and our older children are just overwhelmed with joy to welcome them into our family, to love them unconditionally, just to share life with them. A week ago today identical twin girls were born, that my wife and I are adopting, and the adoption actually became official yesterday afternoon. “So I know it’s been mentioned how I’ve missed several practices over the last week, and I want to address that. Posey began the video call addressing his absence from practices, and ultimately his decision to opt-out of the season.
