Default BIG SEXY Bartolo Colon is now an Author! Free Signed Poster

That's right, BIG SEXY is coming out with a book on Amazon for $25.

Book comes out on May 12th. If you preorder, go to this link and upload proof of the preorder. You'll then get a signed poster of Bartolo Colon along with the book. The poster only goes out to those who preorder.

http://bigsexy.abrams.link/

I'm in!

UPDATE 9/9/2020, THE POSTER HAS BEEN RECEIVED!


I received the free poster today. Looks like the poster may have gotten somehow damaged during shipping or maybe the poster was printed with all those brown dots all over it. Some of those dots go over the auto, which leads me to believe that the inside of the shipping envelope possibly stuck to the poster during transit. Regarless, free is free and I am happy with it



Below is the picture of the book

This is awesome!
Thanks for sharing the info.
I'll go ahead and pre-order one myself.
I wonder if pre-order of the Kindle version also qualifies for the free signed poster.

Thanks for the heads up. I ordered 1. My guess is that this would have been offered as a signed edition book if it were not for the quarantine. Logistically, it’s much easier and cheaper to ship 1000 posters to be signed than 1000 books. I purchase quite a few signed edition books each year but I have to say that for sports stars I would prefer a signed poster over the book itself.

I’d be afraid this poster would take down my wall.
