For what feels like my sixth day in a row receiving a signed Baseball Digest in the mail brought Danny Darwin. Danny signed my September, 1981 issue in blue Sharpie and returned my donation! I am on a heck of a roll! It is way fun getting the mail each day of late!
Prospects Like Crazy!
If you are one of the very few people who follow this crazy blog you will recognize ChrisL999 from SportsCollectors.net. Chris loves chasing autographs and has become on of my favorite guys to get autographs for me. He works the teams that come to the Virginia/Baltimore/Washington areas for me. Today I received his latest package of signed baseballs. These are all signed beautifully in blue ink on the sweetspots of a bunch of highly ranked prospects and current MLB phenoms.

(De)Cince(s) You Asked!
Doug DeCinces provided today’s Baseball Digest! Doug signed the March, 1983 issue in blue Sharpie and included “#11 O’s HOF 2006” which is an interesting choice since he is shown on the cover in an Angels uniform but I am not complaining! Another Baseball Digest for the collection! I have about 10 more out there!
Layin’ Down The Law!
Today’s Baseball Digest arrived signed by Vern Law in beautiful blue Sharpie. The July, 1960 issue was signed and Vern included the following inscriptions:
“Cy Young & W.S. Champs 1960
Lou Gehrig Award
Comeback P.O.Y. 1965″
Vern is a long time friend of autograph collectors and he did not let me down!
