Today I received the 05.29.2017 Sports Illustrated issue that was signed by Lance McCullers Jr. Vinnie M (vinniemiller on SCN) got Lance to sign this issue during the season. He forgot who sent it in and just figured it out so he sent it to me. I could not be happier with it. The sad thing is that Lance got Tommy John Surgery yesterday and will miss 2019.

Vinnie still is mailing me one more item he got and I will update that when I get it. Vinnie did a fantastic job this season for me and aided me in adding many cool items to my collection. Thanks Vinnie! I cannot wait until next season!
Not Free
My friend Nick K stopped by today to drop off some items he got signed for me the last few weeks. He went to Milwaukee for the Rockies/Brewers playoff series and got Kyle Freeland on a baseball for me. When the Tigers visited the Twins the last week of the season, he was able to get Grayson Greiner to sign a debut ticket with “MLB Debut”. Nick did a great job for me over the season and I cannot wait to work with him again next season!
Oh Balls
Today I received a real nice package from my pal Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) which contained three prospects with pretty high ceilings. Chris got them this past month and offered them to me. The baseballs are:
Leody Tavaras
Matt Manning
Ian Anderson w/”Go Braves”
Thanks for all the hard work this year Chris! Can’t wait until next year!
