Now that's a signature. Damn I wish the players today had penmanship like that ... just beautiful to look at.

Some of those are probably TTM from over the years.

Him and Levi Michael. It's too bad it seems like more of the unknown players (in Levi's case) and have better autos than superstars (but not Mariano's case).

Let's compare:

There's still some good ones. Julio Teheran immediately comes to mind. I also like Lance McCullers Jr and Max Fried

Rivera definitely has one of the best autos. out there.

Michael Cuddyer signs his full name all the time now. He was at a signing w/Harmon Killebrew back in the day and Harmon set him straight with his auto. He's been signing it full ever since:



A good read about why he signs his full name now:

They're all real. Probstein has already sold a bunch of them too.

He does sign TTM but I doubt anyone could have gotten that many TTM. I thought they might have been signed for a charity or something like that.

I don't think so, I have a certified RC auto and it looks nothing like that. Will scan and add as an edit in a second. Now that I scan it I see the similarities so who knows. The 'C' on the first one looks pretty bad but does on mine too. Maybe that is just how he does it. My five year old writes better although he can't throw a piece of leather 95 mph .................................................................... yet.

Yeah, that's why I posted it in a thread talking about good/bad sigs.


For anyone doubting it, here's the Topps facsimilie:

Agreed, that one is stunning and even more surprising considering how many he has signed in his career.
