Today I received a Sports Illustrated for Kids magazine that I had sent to Puerto Rico. Juan Gonzalez is on the cover of the April, 1994 issue and I sent it him. Juan signed it perfectly in the blue sharpie I had provided. This was the first time I mailed anything to Puerto Rico and round trip, including the time he had it in his possession was nine business days. Good job Juan and good job USPS!

Today I received a package of three tickets my friend Greg N (justgreg on SCN) got signed for me. Greg notified me that Chris Herrmann signed with the Tacoma Rainiers and asked if I had anything I wanted signed. I happen to have three tickets from various Twins games he got a milestone event in and Greg happily told me to send them to him and he would work on getting them signed. Today I received the tickets signed and inscribed as followed:
09.26.2012 w/”1st ML Hit”
2 @ 06.02.2013 w/”1st ML HR”
Thanks for the great items Greg!

Today I received a pair of packages that had some real nice items in them.
The first package was from Chad L (TheChad on SCN) and contained a bunch of Rochester Red Wing items he got signed for me at the Welcome Home Luncheon and the first few weeks of the season.

Tyler Duffey ticket w/”1st Win!”
Alan Busenitz ticket w/”MLB Debut”
Zach Granite ticket w/”First HR”
Gabriel Moya 1st Save ticket
Gabriel Moya ML Debut ticket

Chad has a few other items to work on for me and I should be getting those goodies in a month or so. I cannot wait! Thanks Chad!!!
The second package was from Devin M (baseballexpert on SCN) and contained the following cards:
4 Jake Reeds
Vance Worley
Jason Richardson
Yohan Pino
2 Niko Goodrums
James Beresford
These cards appear better in person than they even were in the photo!
Bruuuuuuuuuce!
Today I finally received the final item I sent to MLAM for their spring training signings. Major League Alumni Marketing had a signing with a number of players this spring and I had received all my packages except one. Today I received my Lanny Frattare scorecard from 5/27/2008 when Jay Bruce made his major league debut. I already have a ticket from the game signed by Bruce and when I had the chance to purchase Lanny Frattare’s scorecard from the game, I did and knew I would want it signed some day. Jay signed the scorecard on his row on the scorecard and added “ML Debut”. It turned out beautifully and I am real happy!
