Figured I should start a thread so here it is:

Thursday June 7th Indy @ Pawtucket

Went for Indy I did alright pretty much all are as advertised had a hard time getting everything I needed done and can’t make it back for them again but outside of Brandon Boggs they are all guys I’ve gotten in the past anyways. Disappointed that I never got Jeff Clement or Tony Sanchez on some of his newer cards other than that did ok, overall team is really nice outside of Boggs, Navarro, and Kris Johnson brought back his miserable attitude to Pawtucket this series too.

Friday the 8th..doubleheader

Washington Nationals in Boston

Went for the Nats Friday in Boston obviously keeping in mind the outside shots at Harper and Strasy especially since he was pitching. Harper came in with Tyler Moore and Steve Lombardozzi and with only 5 of us there, being right in front of him he blew it off, even Moore and Lombardozzi refused. Never saw Ankiel, Zimmerman, Desmond, Espinosa, Laroche or Beast Mode. Other than that did alright had some luck getting AGone which helped to salvage the day.

Nats
Davey Johnson 1/1
Jesus Flores 1/1
Chen Ming Wang 1/3
Sean Burnett 1/1
Tyler Clippard 1/2, 1/1 (dip)
Gio Gonzalez 2/2: SS ROMLB & 8x10

Red Sox

Andrew Miller 1/1
Daniel Nava 1/1
Adrian Gonzalez 1/1 8x10





Then headed to Pawtucket postgame to finish up what I had left for Indy mainly to get Tony Sanchez, Jeff Clement, and try and get Mark Prior on my SI. With my luck game went 14 innings and wasn’t pretty, was able to get into the park during extra innings saw Rick VandenHurk and he had clipboard on the ground text’n away asked him to sign and his response was “Got nothing else better to do”. Clement refused to sign though but other than that got what I wanted.

Went for Gwinnett Braves on arrival first day of the series in hopes of getting Jair Jurrjens and Julio Teheran, unfortunately Teheran was called up for a spot start and wasn’t there but least I don’t have to waste my time going back for them, didn’t have much anyway but got what I wanted done outside Teheran absence.

G-Braves @ Pawtucket Redsox

Figured Jair Jurrjens would be charting and had that info confirmed so headed to the park to get him and wasn’t disappointed. Apparently he turned Bobby down who asked him because he remembered him from the night before since Bobby and his mom chased Jair back to the hotel. Anyways he was good again to me but apparently he hadn’t sign for anyone else during the series other than the 2x for me and for this guy that worked for the Braves grounds crew a few years ago. Anyways here are the totals:

Pawtucket
Gerald Perry 3/10
Clayton Mortensen 11/11
Mark Prior 1/2, 1/1
Daniel Bard 1/2..”Didn’t I get you all yesterday?” How about you worry about your command not who you sign for

Andy Fox 2/2 (rover)

Gwinnett

Jair Jurrjens 2/2 (charting): 8x10 & card
Eric Junge 9/9
Stefan Gartrell 2/2
Jose Yepez 2/2
Felix Pie 3/3
Tyler Pastornicky 0/fer…definitely not pleased about being down

[jyosi]

Daniel Bard has delusions of grandeur. He gets sent down to AAA and he is still worried about someone getting 2 autographs. At spring training I had a jersey number on a folder and he signed the folder, so I asked him to sign the number and he goes, "I already signed for you." LOL.

[mrfloridadude1]

Would you be willing to trade the chase d'aranud and tyler clippard signed 2012 topps heritage

[SLNoble13]

Very nice pick ups! Was wondering if you would be willing to trade your dups of the 2011 Heritage Minor League cards you got signed recently:

Locke and Marte?

Thanks

Oil Can Boyd Book Signing

Oil Can was a town over from me signing his book "They Call Me Oil Can" at a local library and decided to check it out, caved in and bought the book even though I knew he'd sign whatever anyway but I'm looking forward to reading it when I get some down time. Dennis did a background on himself, the book, talked about baseball today, the Red Sox, his time with the Expos, the 86 season, everything you could think of. Always a class act and a change of pace to get a low stress low key event to hit.

Oil Can 10/11: book + 9 cards...kept the extra rookie card I had to give to his daughter

[bigticket401]

Crosby, Stills & Nash

Went for the trio earlier today on arrival at the venue pretty easy work with 30min was able to get Stills and Nash waited on Crosby even though I was well aware of his habits and some stories about how rough he is, had a good shot at him and he turned me down however I will say he was very nice about it, was going to go back to try later but he told me he wasn't signing at all tonight, that and Steven Stills took a picture of me and the other guys waiting so he knows what we'd look like if we tried later for him.

Steven Stills 1/1 8x10
Graham Nash 1/1 8x10
David Crosby 0/1

[bigticket401]

Erie Sea Wolves @ NB Rockcats

Went for Erie, well pretty much Nick Castellanos and there were some questions of whether he’d be there since he hurt his hand a few nights ago in Harrisburg and needed x-rays yesterday but he was present just not playing. Had pretty good success with him despite the strict 1 per rumors, was actually done with what I had well before first pitch the excepted of Ramon Garcia who was the starter and Rene Tosoni (who refused to sign) and Matt Rizzotti but certainly not worth sticking around just for that. Got most of what I had done but that wasn’t much to begin with but pleased with how I did with Castellanos.

NB

Stu Cliburn 2/14, 12/12…was late coming in finished the rest after BP talk to me about the different spellings of his name, and his time in the senior league where he played with Ron Washington.

Steve Hirschfield 4/4
Aaron Thompson 6/6
James Beresford 4/4
Matt Rizzotti 3/7…”I might get the rest later”
Aaron Hicks 2/2
Rene Tosoni 0/3..”not now I got stuff to do”

Erie

Jerry Martin 5/5
Ray Burris 0/fer (as expected) “My baseball autographing days are over”

Patrick Cooper 1/1..Talked about his disdain for Dodd Stadium when I brought up the CT Tigers first season for which he was apart of

Ramon Garcia 0/5…starting
David Kopp 1/1
Zack Segovia 8/8…signed a few, then said I’ll do the different ones left me with one then asked to just finish it off and he did so (by looking at the autos it’ll be obvious to find the last one he reluctantly did)

Robbie Weinhardt 1/1
Nick Castellanos 1/1 SS ROMLB w/”2010 First Round Pick”, 1/1 8x10, 2/2, 1/1 (help)
Corey Jones 6/6
Jaime Johnson 8/8
