Agree 100%. What would be the estimated time of leave for something like this? A month? Two? A little jarring thinking about the suddenness of it all. Tito Francona is a similar comp from last year in terms of a somewhat unexpected non-COVID medical absence.
My 80 year old mom was in a hospital for 2 days for her pacemaker implant. And back managing the Yankees household in under a week

Same here for my wife's Grandmother, and that was 12+ years ago. Over 80, obese with a laundry list of comorbidities, but it was pretty much easier than an appendectomy or tonsillectomy.

Harrisburg, Pa.
My boss is 61 and had this done a month ago, he was back to working from home the next day and lifted from all restrictions (which were mostly lifting) last week.

The Sox have announced the installation of dugout microwave ovens.

Seriously, though, hope he sails through this as well as the folks discussed above. He seems like reasonably good people.

Something something heart attack something something Sox fans something 2003.

But seriously, all the best to the guy. He's a savage in the stretcher.

He also had heart surgery in 09. I think that's the year after he retired. Hope he gets well, but he better take care of himself. Only 47.
Terry Francona has had serious health issues for nearly 20 years. Modern medicine is so much better for people with heart and circulatory issues but it only takes one blockage at the wrong time, in the wrong place, and the doctors can’t help you. Fortunately, guys like Francona and Boone are around trainers and doctors every day.

Boone is already itching to come back, Covid protocols are delaying him a bit but he could be back as soon as tomorrow.

May he live long enough to get his pilot's license!

J/K: I'm glad to hear that he's okay.
