If you are one of the very few people who follow this crazy blog you will recognize ChrisL999 from SportsCollectors.net. Chris loves chasing autographs and has become on of my favorite guys to get autographs for me. He works the teams that come to the Virginia/Baltimore/Washington areas for me. Today I received his latest package of signed baseballs. These are all signed beautifully in blue ink on the sweetspots of a bunch of highly ranked prospects and current MLB phenoms.

Elly’s Not Smelly
Jim F (jimfalbo21 on SCN) advertised a signing with Elly de la Cruz with a due date which turned out to be a couple days after he was called up to the Reds. It would have been easy for him to cancel this signing and listed one at a higher price but he kept his cost at what it was before the call up which is commendable. I found out about the signing a little late to get a couple baseballs in so I purchased his stock items. I received them today and after a few days at the Major League level he is a heck of a player! I already had one ball signed by him at Redsfest but wanted to add a couple. Now to get my MLB Debut tickets signed…
Holy Smoke! Prospects Abound!
If you have followed this silly blog, you would know that I have a guy named Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) who gets me a ton of prospects on baseballs. I typically send him a dozen baseballs and let him decide who he is going to see and trust his judgement that the player is “ball worthy”. He does an amazing job for me and gets me a lot of the Top 100 Prospects. Today I received a box with the following baseballs signed on the sweetspot in beautiful blue ink:
Stone Garrett
Brock Porter
Jake Irvin
Robert Hassell
Parker Messick
Lane Thomas
Wilmer Flores (Tigers Pitcher Prospect and brother of the other Wilmer Flores)
Samuel Basallo
Colt Keith
Frank Mozzicato
Chris has already put a dent into the next dozen of baseballs I just sent him! Thanks Chris!
Gammons!
Doug K (4192Hits on SCN) runs Cardboard Promotions in the New England area. You may recognize his name from my pile of Joe Mauer signed items I received from him a while back. Doug treats customers’ items as if they were his own. I never had an issue with anything I ever sent in to one of his signings. He recently had Peter Gammons as an autograph guest. He sold so many tickets that he had to have Gammons come back a week later to finish everything up. I had sent in a baseball to have Gammons sign it with “HOF 05” and, like everything else previously, was received in perfect condition!
