Today I received seven baseballs of prospects and first round draft picks from my man Paul C. I give Paul a list of guys I want from AA teams in Florida and he gets them signed for me more times than not. Today I received the following beautiful blue ink sweetspot baseballs:
JP Crawford – Phillies
Aaron Nola – Phillies w/”2014 1st Round Pick”
Michael Chavis – Red Sox w/”2014 1st Round Pick”
Gregory Bird – Yankees
Angelo Gumbs – Yankees
Eric Jagielo – Yankees w/”2013 1st Round”
Aaron Judge – Yankees w/”2013 1st Rd Pick”
Yet again Paul comes through big time!

Today I received an envelope with two cards I sent to Carl Pavano a week ago. Carl finished off his 2012 Topps card which was already signed by Drew Butera and Rick Anderson. He also signed his 2013 Topps Heritage High Number card.
A Rose By Any Other Name…
Today I received the last seven Sports Illustrated magazines with Pete Rose on the cover that I sent in to a private signing to get signed. They turned out perfect! I am really excited to add them to my collection! Franco858 (Isaias F on SCN) had a private signing with Pete in Las Vegas and these were signed at his event. The issue I got signed are:
08.27.1979 (already signed by Manny Mota)
07.19.1982
08.27.1984
04.03.1989
07.03.1989
01.12.2004
03.10.2014
It was a great box to open!
Futures Stars!
Today was a great mail day. I received three baseballs I purchased from Kent B (doggle3 on SCN) who I have purchased quite a bit from both already signed and via consignments. Kent was up for the All Star festivities and got some autographs and made them available. I received:
Joey Gallo w/”Futures Game MVP”
Julio Urias
Corey Seager
As always, Kent does an awesome job.
I also received a baseball signed by Dr James Andrews. I sent it to him on 04.09.2014. He signed it “To Kevin”/Dr Jim Andrews. Interesting he signed his first name Jim. Thanks Dr Andrews!
