Dear Ryan Vogelsong,
Thank you for giving your heart and soul to the San Francisco Giants for the last four years. What an incredible journey it took to come back to the franchise where it all started. What an even more incredible last four years. Two world championships, a Willie Mac award and an All-Star appearance. Through all the ups and downs, you continued to put in the hours and give everything of yourself for this team. The best thing about your time in San Francisco is that when the team needed you most, you performed. Your post-season record will go down in history as one of the best ever in the history of the franchise. Fans will always remember you for that. And, that will make you forever a fan favorite.
I am so happy for you to find a team where you will have the opportunity to pitch every fifth day. I know that opportunity might not have been possible with the Giants in 2015. Here's hoping you are able to continue to pitch for as long as you want. One day, you will have a plaque outside AT&T Park for all of your success in orange and black. Fitting you found another team in orange to play for. Good luck in Houston. You will forever be a champion and forever a Giant.
The Fanbase
Mike Krukow: "The one thing you want as a player is to be remembered, and San Francisco will never forget Ryan Vogelsong."
