I am sure many of you have been wondering
why our senior writer and chief baseball historian, Reese Kaplan, hasn't
written word one in the past week.
Well. we heard from his wife on Saturday
who left this message on one of our posts:
To
All of Reese's fellow Mets Bloggers
This is his wife, Vivian
Kaplan.
Reese has suffered severe
brain trauma due to passing out and falling onto the floor, hitting his head.
This occurred last Saturday evening, at home. He was in ICU at the trauma
center for a week. Currently, he is in inpatient rehab. and is receiving PT, OT
and Speech Therapy.He is unable contact anyone at this time
I called Vivian and assured her that there
would be better days ahead for both her and Reese. I had a similar incident
when I passed out from a low blood sugar.
We here at Mack's Mets all are happy that
Reese survived this accident and our prayers go out to both him and his wife
for a speedy and thorough recovery.
He's been the rock that keeps this site solid, churning out four quality posts a week. I couldn't see how this blog would move forward without him.

here and I will pass them on to him.

Reese's writings have shown us a brilliant analytical mind, frequently recalling many things I'd long forgotten (some I never knew in the first place). I always enjoy reading his articles, different than anyone else's in the blogosphere - and better than most, for sure. What comes through in his prolific writing is that he is a solid, sincere, decent human being, and he is a fine friend to us all here.
My interactions with Reese have always been of the highest caliber.
God bless, for strength for you both, Reese and Vivian, and for a miraculously swift and full recovery.
Reese your writings are all class and full of insight. Please get well soon. Our prayers are with you and your family.
Get better soon Reese. I am a big Mets fan and I loved reading your articles.
Reese take your time on DL and come back when your 100%. Praying for a speedy recovery buddy.
Agree with everyone here............get well soon, Reese.
So sad to hear about this. We have exchanged so many comments throughout the years that I feel I know Reese even thought we have never met personally.
Get well soon Reese. I and many other readers here will include you in our daily prayers.
I wish Reese a complete and speedy recovery.
