I am gonna miss you Woody. I think the team will miss you more. With the loss of you and Grip, I think a large part of the heart and soul of the Giants is gone.

I hope you can go out and discover whether or not you can help someone else. I think you realized a while ago that there was no place for you on this team anymore, and you wanted to find someone who could fit you in. I think you deserve that chance, and it's too bad that chance couldn't have come sooner.

Thanks for signing with us when you could make more somewhere else. Thanks for being one of the winningest leftys in the game, at least for a while. Thanks for being one of the winningest Giants ever. Thanks for being a great teammate and a great competitor. Thanks for giving us a chance to win Game 7 and thanks for getting us there. Thanks for just being Woody, and thanks for being one of my favorite players ever.

I hope that you can have one more shed party, if not now but in the future. I know there will be a lot of guys who want to be there.

Goodbye!
