With today being the season opener for the Twins, MY calendar just flipped to summer so Happy Summer everyone! \u00a0Even though is it “summer”, I received a couple spring packages today. \u00a0Three to be exact! \u00a0What a great mail day! \u00a0I have a couple more spring packages on their way to me but today was a nice start.<\/p>\n
The first box I opened was from Matt M (mightyswede on SCN). \u00a0Matt hits the Florida spring training scene for me and came up with the following:
\nWil Myers ML Debut ticket (gorgeous!)
\nNick Markakis SI (already signed by Adam Jones)
\nJason Grilli SI
\nGreat job Matt and thanks!<\/p>\n
The next box I opened was from Christian B (hheroes10 on SCN). \u00a0As I mentioned in the past, Christian has been getting me autographs in Arizona for a long, long time. \u00a0At least five years between the Arizona Fall League and spring training. \u00a0This spring he got me the following:
\nAddison Reed OMLB
\nAdam Eaton OMLB
\nWade Miley ML Debut ticket with inscription
\nMark Trumbo ML Debut ticket
\nTommy Lasorda SI
\nChristian does a great job and I cannot wait to send him my list of guys for the AZ Fall League! \u00a0Thanks Christian!<\/p>\n
The last box I opened was from my guy Paul C who works the Ft Myers area for me during spring as well as during the Florida State League minor league season. \u00a0This was the final box of spring training items and he did not disappoint! \u00a0The box from him contained the following baseballs:
\nMookie Betts
\nByron Buxton
\nAnthony Ranaudo
\nBryce Brentz
\nBarry Larkin with HOF (beautiful!)
\nKoji Uehara
\nAnother great box from Paul! \u00a0Thanks for all the great baseballs!<\/p>\n
I look forward to receiving the next boxes of goodies from my friends who work spring training for me!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
