Frankie

I often think how the Twins postseason would have gone had Francisco Liriano not gotten injured in 2006. We had Justin Morneau winning the AL MVP and Johan Santana winning the AL Cy Young award and the 1-2 punch of Johan and Frankie was probably the best in baseball. Alas, Frankie had to be shut down and eventually had Tommy John Surgery and the Twins got swept by the A’s in the divisional round.
Today, however, I was able to add a couple items to my collection signed by Liriano. The first was a Topps Now Turn Back The Clock card from when he threw his no hitter. The other was a pair of tickets from his ML Debut. Ryan S (rls2239 on SCN) held a private signing and got these items signed for me.
