Today I received a package of baseballs my guy Paul C got for me signed by Florida State League prospects. This package contained the following:
Jorge Mateo
Kevin Newman
Kevin Kramer
Jack Flaherty
Jhoan Urena
Wuilmer Becerra
Amed Rosario
Some of these baseballs are duplicates but they are such good players I could not go wrong adding an additional signed ball to the collection.
Thanks Paul!

A Phil But Not For Long
Today I received a Sports Illustrated signed by Ryan Howard of the Phillies. He is probably going to be out of baseball at the end of this season but he did manage to have a private signing with Todd Schafer a couple weeks ago. Todd had my 11.2.2009 SI signed in blue Sharpie. I was hoping for a decent autograph since this was a sit down paid signing. If it is, Howard’s signature is worse than I thought!
Mazeroski & Cheese
Today I received a Baseball Magazine from October 1979 that was sent to Jeremy P (WVU Rocks on SCN) for his signing with Bill Mazeroski. Bill signed it exactly as I wished he would have on his image.
Jeremy even took a photo of Maz signing my magazine!
It turned out great. It is now signed by both Don Larsen and now Maz. Thanks Jeremy!
The Kid
Today I received a Sports Illustrated magazine signed by one of the best to ever play the game, Ken Griffey Jr. Back when Griffey played for the Mariners I would go to all three games in the series when they visited the Twins. Not once did I ever see Griffey or A Rod sign for anyone. Fast forward years later I have purchased two different signed (and authenticated) Sports Illustrated magazines in the span of a few months. I am glad to get these and would love to find the rest of them. This one came from Lou B (loumud on SCN) and arrived beautifully signed and in great shape. A real nice addition to the collection!
