Pedro Martinez or Randy Johnson?

Wisconsinboy42 · 03-17-2015, 09:38 AM

Hey guys I'm going to the Fanatics Authentic Sports Spectactular show this weekend in Chicago. I'm mainly going to get something signed by Marcus Mariota. I entered a contest on their Facebook page and won a contest for either a Randy Johnson or Pedro Martinez autograph ticket. Not too sure about baseball so which one would be better to get? Any input would be appreciated!

Randy Johnson, hands down..

Randy Johnson by a mile

Randy Johnson. He's a much tougher autograph free in person and he's always priced much more than Pedro.

calculusdork · 03-17-2015, 09:47 AM

Tough one. I share a birthday with RJ, would have to pick him on that ground alone.

PadresFan86 · 03-17-2015, 09:47 AM

Randy Johnson only because he killed a bird with a fastball

Randy Johnson

They are both solid. If you're just getting an auto, RJ has a nicer signature. He probably sells a bit better too.

Go with the Unit. Lucky you that you won a free ticket.

MLH · 03-17-2015, 09:57 AM

I gotta go Randy Johnson too.

Wisconsinboy42 · 03-17-2015, 09:59 AM

Thanks for the opinion guys! Gonna see if I can get an 8x10 of Johnson hitting the bird!

I think it depends on the item that you want to get autographed to be honest.

If you are looking for a photo, or baseball to be autographed then Randy Johnson would be the better choice.

If you are looking to get a jersey autograph then choose Pedro Martinez, as Randy Johnson will not autograph jerseys unless it has other signatures on it (I believe a minimum of 5).

Better pitcher: Pedro Martinez

Better auto: Randy Johnson

Why would he have that requirement? Dont autos devaluate when theres tons of them on the same item?

He has said that he only signs those jerseys for charity. Apparently it works too as they go for pretty big money at auction.

jlzinck · 03-17-2015, 12:43 PM

All these fine people below are wrong,
The only correct answer is Pedro on a MLB and send it to me.

Randy Johnson by a landslide.

Pedro is still a very good pitcher.

sheetskout · 03-17-2015, 02:24 PM

I would actually take Pedro, but that's just me.

gios12345 · 03-17-2015, 02:45 PM
