Today I received a baseball signed by CJ Wilson. It is a real nice baseball signed in blue ink on the sweetspot. I bought this from Josh M (ridiculousxdream on SCN). Thanks Josh!

Another Batch of Prospects
Today I received a nice batch of prospects who play/played in the Florida State League from my guy Paul C. If you are one of the regular readers (the few of you) you will recognize Paul’s name as he has gotten me a lot of future stars of late. With the MLB draft recently happening, a number of first round picks are being assigned to the FSL. I will be keeping Paul busy!
Here is a list of who I received today (inscriptions in parenthesis):
Angelo Gumbs
Andrew Heaney (2012 1st Round)
Ty Hensley (1st Round Pick 12)
Stephen Piscotty (God Bless)
Rob Refsnyder (CWS MVP 2012)
Gary Sanchez
Mason Williams
Thanks Paul!
Oh Balls!
Today I received a nice box of baseballs I purchased through Major League Alumni Marketing (MLAM). All the baseballs are MLB Authenticated and signed beautifully on the sweetspot. I am happy to add them to my collection… especially the Beltre!
Allen Craig
Jose Altuve
Nolan Arenado
Oscar Taveras
Travis D’Arnaud
Adrian Beltre
A Veteran and a Rookie
Today I received two packages that each had a baseball I purchased. One had veteran pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka with his typical English autograph on the sweetspot and his name in Japanese on the right panel. Jon B (boswell423 on SCN) hooked me up with that one.
The other package had potential Rookie of the Year Matt Harvey on it. Derek A (urmomluvsme on SCN) had a pair of Harvey signed balls and sold me one. I probably paid a little more than if I had waited because Harvey has a buzz about him now but I wanted to make sure I got one in my collection before he went really big time.
