A Box of Prospects!

Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) has gotten me a TON of autographs of top prospects over the last few years. Today’s mail brought in a dozen baseballs all signed beautifully! The prospects in this box include:
Brailer Guerrero
Yoeilin Cespedes
Chris Haciopian
Henry Godbout
Brad Lord
Roch Cholowski
Henry Ford
Braylon Doughty
Carson Benge
Jonathan Santucci
Theo Gillen
Aiden Smith
Some of these guys are expected to be first round picks in this summer’s baseball draft. It is exciting to get these guys now and follow their success, or failure, in their MLB careers.
I am excited to meet Chris and his wife next month when I get to a game in Washington, DC!

Twins Minors

I found Mike E in a Facebook group around January this year when he offered a card for sale I needed. Since then we communicated a little via Messenger and he helped acquire Twins AAA autographs when the Saints visited Iowa. He has another batch now for next week when the Saints revisit Iowa. He does a great job on autographs for my collection. Today’s batch included:
Zebby Matthews ticket w/”MLB Debut!”, 2025 Topps #283
Randy Dobnak ticket w/”1st MLB Win!”
Jair Camargo ticket w/”MLB Debut”, 2024 Topps Heritage #633
Austin Martin 2024 Topps Heritage #649
I am really excited to add these to my collection and to see how successful Mike is with the next batch! Thanks a lot Mike!

Hey Bert!

Every day is a great day to receive a Hall of Famer’s autograph but today was especially great because of the quantity of items from Bert Blyleven. It took just seven days to get back the following items signed exactly as requested by Bert:
07.16.2011 Twins Ticket w/”#28 Retired”
1973/1974/1976/1986 Topps Wendy’s cards
2011 Baseball Hall of Fame Yearbook w/”HOF 2011″
I am so excited on each of these!
I also received the June, 1988 Baseball Digest that I just got back signed by Bret Saberhagen now signed by Mark Gubicza. He returned my donation and included his full signature instead of his typical “G”.
Lastly, Ryan S (Rls2239 on SCN) had a private signing with Jake Odorizzi. I sent in the last cards I needed signed by Jake to complete all the Twins cards I needed. I received:
2019 Topps #63
2020 Topps #409
05.10.2019 Topps Now #210
2020 Topps New Road To Opening Day #OD-146
Great day!
