TTM Success Samuel Deduno

 Samuel Deduno 2011 Topps RC San Diego Padres

2004 Casper Rockies Team Set Card

Another long return from Spring Training. Minnesota pitcher Samuel Deduno returned my two cards with a great signature and I love getting the Casper cards signed. Samuel Deduno had a great World Baseball Classic in 2013 winning it all and getting a ring. Samuel made his MLB Debut in 2010 with the Colorado Rockies then the following winter the Padres signed him off of waivers and he spent his 2011 season in San Diego and has been with the Twins since then. Thanks Samuel and good luck.

TTM Success Brett Marshall

 Brett Marshall 2013 Topps Updates New York Yankees Baseball Card

 Brett Marshall 2008 TriStar Prospects Plus GCL Yankees

Brett Marshall 2008 Razor New York Yankees Draft

This is a good long return from Spring Training this year sent c/o the Cincinnati Reds Spring Training complex this spring. Brett was selected by the Cubs off of waivers from the Yankees around Christmas last year then in February the Reds selected him off of waivers from the Cubs. Right now he is 0-7 for the Louisville Bats with a 9.09 ERA so I don't know his chances of getting called up this year. This is a great return on some cool cards. Thanks Brett and Good luck.

 Tim Cooney 1952 Topps Perfect Game Custom Card

 Tim Cooney 2008 Topps St. Louis Cardinals custom card

Tim Cooney 2014 Bowman St. Louis Cardinals Purple

Tim Cooney signed these four cards sent c/o the Memphis Red Birds (Cardinals AAA) and is one of the top rated prospects in the St. Louis organization. I especially like the perfect game card because he was a sophomore in High School and there was another photo I could have used where he was a freshman and looked it too he looked very young compared to now. He is one of the Cardinals top young arms and will likely get some MLB experience this year. Thanks Tim and good luck!

 Matt Railey 1960 Topps North Florida Christian High School custom card

Matt Railey 1955 Bowman North Florida Christian High School custom card

A great return on some customs and a Leaf Perfect Game card. Matthew was a 3rd round draft pick by the Arizona Diamondbacks this June out of North Florida Christian High School. These are some of my new customs including a alternate 1955 Bowman and a 1960 Topps and a better colored 1962 Topps. Matt also added a note on the envelope saying hard work pays off but the envelope was mostly destroyed like was a empty envelope that came in yesterday that was supposed to be from Justus Sheffield so I was disappointed with the post office that that happened twice in two days. Surprisingly these cards weren't damaged at all. Matt signed these cards sent c/o the Missoula Osprey and I hope to see him play at South Bend later this year or next year. Thanks Matthew and good luck.

Derek Jeter 2008 Upper Deck Starquest Autographed card

I got a good deal on this Derek Jeter card I bought it online. It is 100% perfect authentic and it was good to get because he is a future hall of famer and he is one of my favorite players in the MLB. I just thought I would show this addition to my collection. RE2PECT

TTM Success Luis Ortiz

 Luis Ortiz 1952 Topps Pefect Game Custom Card

 Luis Ortiz 1955 Bowman Area Code custom card

Luis Ortiz 2013 Leaf Perfect Game Baseball Card

A great return from Rangers 1st round draft pick Luis Ortiz. Luis Ortiz was the 30th overall pick in this draft and signed out of Sanger High School. Luis signed these three cards c/o the AZL Rangers and signed the 1952 card correctly. The 1955 Bowman was one of my best designs I have signed of that yet I put a1950s baseball field in the background. This is an all around great return. Thanks Luis and good luck.

 Chase Vallot 1976 Topps St. Thomas More Under Armour All-America custom baseball card

Chase Vallot 1952 Topps Perfect Game custom baseball card

I an excited to get these cards back today. Chase was dropping bombs in the 2013 Under Armour Home Run Derby and was a good defensive catcher in the game too. Chase was drafted as a 1st round competitive balance round A draft pick of the Royals and signed these cards sent c/o the Burlington Royals. These cards came back from Baton Rouge, LA so I think he took them home with him during the all-star break. Thanks Chase and good luck.

TTM Success Colby Holmes

Colby Holmes back of my 1995 Score.

A great return of Colby Holmes brother of Grant Holmes (Dodgers 1st round draft pick) signed the cards on the back and at first I was kind of bummed but now it is kind of cool that I look at it they are really vivid and clear and the 1995 score has a photo of him so that improves the return. I am glad to get this one because I love getting cards of players who are related and this is one of those guys I got his brother Grant as a TTM last month and at the 2013 Under Armour Game. I sent these cards to the Danville Braves and he returned the cards in 10 days along with a letter answering 9 questions I asked. Thanks Colby and good luck.

A good return from AAGPBL star Renae 'Ray' Youngberg. I got some customs signed I have to admit they aren't my best customs by any means but she did add in an actual card which they seem to be good about and she wrote me a letter mentioning and quoting the movie which made this league so famous. She said her favorite player was Andy Pafko and some of her equipment is in the Cooperstown Hall of Fame and told me to always work hard and I love getting this kind of return. I sent that c/o her home. Thanks Renae. 

TTM Success Bobby Richardson

 Bobby Richardson 2008 Topps Custom Card New York Yankees

Bobby Richardson New York Yankees Custom Card

This was a good success. A card from my first sheet of customs and a 2008 Topps which I love. Bobby Richardson signed these cards sent c/o his home and wrote me a letter and added in a short reading pamphlet about Mickey Mantle. His letter was short ans brief but answered my questions never the less and Bobby has always been a friend to the collectors and it took making customs for me to get him and I am happy to. Bobby was the 1960 World Series MVP and is a Yankee for life. Thanks Bobby, great return.

TTM Success Scott Talanoa

Scott Talanoa 1995 Upper Deck Top Prospect

I have to be honest I do not even remember sending this card. I do not know who he is but this is what my research shows he played from 1991-1996 in the Brewers and Expos Minor Leagues and is a 6'5" 240 lb BEAST hitting 28 Home Runs one season. Scott signed this card sent c/o his home and I appreciate him taking the time. Scott even had pitching experience in the Minors. Thanks for the return.

Aaron Nola 1982 Topps LSU Custom Card (badly damaged on the bottom left corner)

I am really happy to get Aaron Nola back today the Phillies 1st round draft pick (7th overall) and he signed them all "To Jackson" which I always love and he is on a fast track to the MLB already he made his professional debut with the Clearwater Threshers of the A Advanced Florida State League on June 23, 2014 and isn't even a month into his professional career. I did mention in the photo description of the 1982 card that it was badly damaged... the corner was completely crumpled and folded and I have already made a large improvement on it and will do my best to touch it up. it was a shame that that happened because I had all of my cards in top loaders and only half of them were returned in their top loaders. I was glad to get four back and especially four cool ones I love getting LSU cards signed because that is the best baseball college and it has so many stars come out of there. Great return thank Aaron and good luck.

A great local return I only had to send these cards across town. Ben Shelton signed these cards sent c/o his home in Oak Park. Ben Shelton played baseball and basketball at OPRF and enjoyed playing for his coach and OPRF baseball legend Jack Kaiser and was teammates with current Varsity coach Chris Ledbetter, and fellow Pittsburgh Pirate, OPRF Graduate, Sean Lawrence. He added a letter one of the most personal and kind letters and I think I will stay in touch with him with it being so easy to. Thanks Ben and it al always great to get somebody's autograph who has successfully gone through the OPRF Baseball organization and has moved on to the big leagues. Great Return.

I am psyched about this return because I love getting the Draft Picks and I got the 22nd pick in this this Draft, Grant Holmes of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Grant is one of my favorite player in this draft but I like all of them a lot because they are the future of the MLB and good guys. I saw Grant at the Under Armour All-American game and got his autograph then and I love getting it again. Grant signed these cards sent c/o the AZL Dodgers and I am beyond happy to get these back. Grant's brother Colby is a minor leaguer in the Braves organization. Thanks so much G! Good luck.

Ryan was a Chicago Cubs 2nd round draft pick and was the Rockies 38th pick in the Expansion Draft and was an original Rockie.

IP South Bend SilverHawks vs. Lake County Captains Autograph baseball card recap 7/5/14

I had almost all of the South Bend players already but it was good to get some team set cards signed and see the guys again. I got the pitching coach Doug Bochtler on his birthday and I have to say Nellie Rodriguez is the most dangerous hitter I have seen at the single A level hitting a bomb the day before and two bombs when I got his auto... and almost a third. Grant Fink was one of the nicest guys he got Clint Frazier's autograph for me when Clint wouldn't sign for me. The customs went down well sorry to waste your time if you are reading this, here are my autos:
