Well I get this one back, and he must have taken it to the post office for some reason, and then added a stick on $0.21 postage onto my SASE. Never seen this before...

Then, on top of that, he signed it in the weirdest place, the very top left corner.

Has anybody ever received anything back from him? I'm really glad I got it back, and very happy with the return.

I am still waiting on a return from him, keep ya posted as to where he signs. Good to know about Bryant! Thx for the insight.....

[SDcardguy24]

Thanks for posting the tweet, I'm sure he'l be getting flooded now

jk his mail pile has been full since he got drafted by the Cubs lol

Hopefully he decides to take his time and give his old, longer signature!

[oucats02]

Thanks for the info! I actually sent to him in ST and thought I would try again!!!

Thanks for reading everybody!

[oucats02]

First off, thanks to those of you who helped out with finding the mystery autograph signer. Looks like/turns out it is Travis Snider who signed them. I called the auction house, and hopefully I get my money back. I don't want 7 Travis Snider balls, I wanted blank balls that I could use for Cooperstown and the National show. So, there's that...

Was out of town this weekend for a wedding and came back to quite a few returns!

Matt Davidson - Sent 6/17 - c/o Team
Jedd Gyorko - Sent 4/8 - c/o Team
Tyler Danish - Sent 6/17 - c/o Team
Eddie Butler - Sent 6/17 - c/o Team (Rockies)
Daniel Corcino - Sent 6/17 - c/o Team

Also received back 2 Buck Showalter cards - unsigned. I have seen a lot of success with him, does anybody have any idea what I did wrong? Should I re-send with just 1? Would really appreciate any help here

Also, went to the Dayton Dragons vs. Lake County Captains game last night and did pretty well.

4 Nick Travieso
2 Clint Frazier
4 Dorssys Paulino
1 Nellie Rodriguez

[oucats02]

Nice job! Did you get Tabata inside or outside? Did he do more than 2 for anyone?

[oucats02]

I was THE only one, literally THE only person there. He did 2 before the game for me, I only had 2. NOBODY else was around.

I've always been a fan of his, I'm hoping to get him to sign a few things for me in Columbus next week

[SportsAutoFreak]

Best of luck to you as far as that goes.

[dbacksfan4life]

Awesome successes! Would you consider trading one of the Holmberg's THM? I wasn't able to get him when he was with the DBacks and would love to add him to my collection.

[oucats02]

Absolutely!

I know there is a guy out there looking for the Bowman Chromes, I got 3 Chromes of Cumpton too FYI....

[oucats02]

Couldn't sleep so I thought I would write some letters.... These will go out in the morning once I get some more stamps.

Kyle Waldrop
Dave Valle
Manny Parra
Doug Fister
Patrick Kivlehan - this is letter #3 to him and I have gotten nothing back...
Jake Barrett - I've seen some returns thought I would give it a shot
Jimmy Nelson
Roman Quinn
Mike O'Neill
Reese McGuire
Braden Shipley

We'll see what happens and what the mail brings!

Thats weird about Kivlehan. Got my ttm back from him in 2 weeks flat
He seemed like he was a good signer

[SportsAutoFreak]

Didn't know Valle signed, unless you're just taking a chance. Good luck with all them, especially the Fister.

[oucats02]

Taking a chance on Valle, and I have seen some returns on Fister so I thought it was worth a shot ya know?

[SportsAutoFreak]

Absolutely worth it. I'd love to get my hands on a Fister card and send to him. He's quietly been one of baseball's better pitchers the last handful of years.

[oucats02]

Historically, as everybody knows, Tuesday is a bad mail day. Well, I got lucky and came back to 2 returns!

2/2 Ji-Man Choi; Sent May 22nd c/o Tacoma
2/2 Junichi Tazawa; Sent May 1st c/o Boston

Also, had some time and ran down to the stadium before today's game. Caught the South Bend bus on the way in. Couldn't recognize Daniel Palka, but was able to recognize Jamie Westbrook, got him on 8 Bowman Paper and 1 Bowman Chrome.

Can't decide if I should go back for post game or not.....

[SportsAutoFreak]

Splendid news on the Tazawa. Very happy for you and thanks for sharing.

[oucats02]

Well, I went back down to the stadium and got really lucky. I was able to get everything done before they went to the locker room so I didn't have to wait around for them to get done in the clubhouse.

Got Pitching Coach Doug Bochtler on 1993 Topps - he was surprised that somebody had a card, and was asking for his autograph.

Daniel Palka 9; 2014 Bowman. He even made a comment about the Bochtler card.

All in all, a great day mail day and IP day!!!

Thanks for reading

[SportsAutoFreak]

That's a funny story about Bochtler. Regrettably, I've never heard of either name, but I'm glad you had yourself a good success out. Nice job. Graphing the Minors must be so much fun.
