Great Balls of Rookies!

My man Christian B (hheroes10 on SCN) has gone to the Arizona Fall League for autographs since around 2009 (that I have worked with him anyways) and does a great job getting autographs for me on baseballs of future MLB players.  This year was no different!

Today I received my box of eight baseballs he got signed for me.  They are:
Javier Baez
Nick Castellanos
George Springer
Richie Shaffer
Mike Zunino
Billy Hamilton
Kolten Wong
James Paxton
We will see in a few years which turns out to be the best player!

Thanks Christian!

Man, I love Mondays!

You might notice a theme from all these posts of mine.  I get most of the great mail on Mondays.  I am sure it is because there are really two days worth of “mail movement” that ends with delivery on Monday.

Today brought two packages from two different people who helped me out with autographs.  The first was a package of four baseballs signed by players in the Florida Instructional Leagues.  My guy Paul C got me the following:
Shane Watson
Jose Berrios
Alex Heredia
Stetson Allie
All are beautiful blue signatures on the sweetspot!

The other package was three Sports Illustrated magazines from a recent show in St Louis.  Lezcano D (deano on SCN) lives near St Louis and offers to help people obtain autographs at the shows in the area.  Lezcano got me the following:
Tim McCarver on 09.04.1967
Alex Johnson on 07.05.1971
and the following all on the 10.07.1968 Sports Illustrated I already had signed by Red Schoendienst:
Tim McCarver
Julian Javier
Mike Shannon
All autographs turned out awesome.

I am very pleased with both packages I received today!  Thanks guys!

A Royal-ly Great Day!

Today I received a great package from my man Kent B (doggle3 on SCN).  Kent has helped me in the past with getting items signed for the Royals and also their visitors.  So, for the last three series in KC I sent him some items to get signed.  He did not let me down!

He got the following:
Torii Hunter:  2004 Topps #704- The last Hunter Topps card I needed!
Francisco Liriano:  2012 Topps #517- The last Liriano Topps card I needed!
Hank Conger:  Debut ticket
Jason Kipnis:  Debut ticket
Lonnie Chisenhall:  Debit ticket
Orlando Hudson:  Cycle ticket
Mike Scioscia:  02.24.2003 Sports Illustrated
Prince Fielder:  08.29.2011 Sports Illustrated
Paul Konerko:  10.03.2005 Sports Illustrated

Real nice quality of autographs and great care taken with my items!  I look forward to next season to work with Kent to add more awesome items to the collection!
