Wow! What a cool item I received today! Josh Martin recently posted in a Facebook group about offering a Rod Carew stat ball for sale. It looked pretty nice so I bought it and it arrived today. Years ago Reggie Jackson had a company that sold stat balls of different players and Carew was one. There are nineteen stats on the ball! It even came with the ReggieJackson.com card with the matching hologram sticker number! I love it! It is Rod’s old signature (pre-heart attack).

Another Debut!
Mid-September last season Bryce Eldridge was called up and made his Major League debut. MLB Legends was offering a signing with him this spring so I sent in the ticket and received it back today signed beautifully with “MLB Debut”. I also purchased a Leo DeVries signed baseball and that was with the ticket.
Pablo Day
Today’s mail brought in a 2025 Topps Heritage #131 signed Pablo Lopez card. I purchased it from Wesley George out of Florida. He got it signed when the Twins were in Tampa Bay playing the Rays. Looks great!
The Buck Stops Here!
Today’s mail brought my first two packages from spring training. And in it was a couple Byron Buxton signed cards as well as a Chris Paddack.
Robbie L (robbielee on SCN) got Buck to sign his 2025 Topps Heritage #282 and Chris Paddack to sign his 2025 Topps #US73.
Jim Lowery posted some cards he got signed in a Facebook collecting group and I was able to acquire Buxton’s 2024 Allen & Ginter #98 card.
All three cards are great and I look forward to additional spring training mail coming in soon!
