Today I received another Sports Illustrated signed by Rhys Hoskins, Aaron Nola, and JT Realmuto that was facilitated by Pat Neshek. When I received my first SI, I noticed the red printing was off a little and it looked a little weird. Also, Pat started offering BAS authentication and I thought it would be cool to have that on it as well so I sent an other issue. Pat is doing collectors a huge service my facilitating getting autographs from his teammates. Thanks Pat!
Also arriving today was a pair of baseball cards that have been to a couple different people with Robert A (elpasodiablos on SCN) finally getting them signed for me! Pat Dean was with the Twins a couple years ago and then went to Korea to play baseball and is back in the States playing for the Albuquerque Isotopes (Rockies AAA team) and they recently visited El Paso where Robert got them signed for me. The cards are:
2016 Topps Heritage
2016 Topps
Thanks Robert!

You’re Kirilloffing Me Smalls
At the end of June, 2019, Crave Sports had a private signing with Twins Future Star Alex Kirilloff. Even though I have a baseball signed by him, it was at a price point where I was willing to add a couple baseballs signed with draft related inscriptions. Crave Sports does a phenomenal job with their signings so I sent in a pair of baseballs and got them signed with the inscriptions I requested. They were “2016 15th Overall Draft Pick” and “2016 1st Round Draft Pick” They are signed beautifully and came with the Crave hologram!
Lenny, Lenny!
Today I received my 1982 Topps Twins Rookie card that was already signed by Kent Hrbek and Tim Laudner that I had sent to Tony M (bandit11 on SCN). Tony had a private signing with Lenny Faedo and I sent in my card for it. It is now complete signed in blue Sharpie beautifully by all three players on the card.
Buehler? Buehler?
Today I received a pair of baseballs that I am really excited to add to my collection. Walker Buehler is, in some circles, considered the ace of the Dodgers rotation… a rotation which includes Clayton Kershaw. Harry’s Dugout had a signing event with Walker and today I received the two baseballs, with Beckett Certification, signed beautifully in blue ink on the baseballs I sent. I am REALLY happy with these baseballs!
