Get well soon

Howie is taking the rest of the year off to deal with the ongoing health issues he's had.

Get well, Howie. And do those quizzes from home. I wonder if he was holding out, hanging on, so he could host the Koosman uniform retirement ceremonies?

Without speculating, he missed a few chunks this year, might just be a scheduling thing. (hospitals are tight right now, apparently there's a lot of people running around exposing themselves to dangerous viruses) Though I wonder if it was playoffs related. The team tanked and he realized he might as well just take the next slot.

Get well, Howie. And get plenty of rest. We'll need you all next year in the World Series Championship run. Later

He looked pretty good on Koosnight. Hope everything works out for him and he's ready and roaring to go next season.

Thoughts and prayers to my favorite baseball radio man.

He hasn't been as sharp this year, though much of that be the challenge of calling games remotely.

Howie had a successful procedure today as per the radio broadcast team. Not sure still what it was. I am assuming that he had his anus expanded surgically.

What else could it be?

Best to Howie!

Howie checked in with Wayne and Eddie prior to first pitch. Says recovery's coming more slowly than he anticipated, and he did sound a little worn, but he was also feisty regarding the Mets needing to make changes — and he's still growling about the thumbs down business. Mostly he wanted to thank everybody for the torrent of good wishes.

Geez I'm glad I reread this....I thought it was this year

The wall of the ballpark with the ticket booth behind them has a very suburban Abraham & Strauss look.

He's enjoying that giant new anus of his I bet

Fernando Tatis Jr. will be out several months with a wrist injury. A motorcycle may have been involved. [url]https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33512913/next-fernando-tatis-jr-how-injury-impacts-season-contract-padres
