100 Players Everyone Should TTM
It seems like we get people all the time asking for ideas of who to TTM and every single time we direct them to the TTM database. I think it would be cool to make a list of 100 (or possibly more) players who consistently sign that everyone should TTM.
I'm not just looking for players who always sign, they need to be special in some way. Provide a reason why they are special (star player, HoFer, etc.) and their signing habits.
=> Please do not pick more than 5 players and I will edit his listing as we build to 100! indyreds!<=
Baseball:
1 - Wade Boggs - HoFer, usually signs for free and will always sign if you throw in a few dollars (added by yankeesfan1324)
2 - Pat Neshek - Will always sign for free and answer your questions and is a collector himself (added by yankeesfan1324)
3 - Josh Hamilton - Star player, will always let mail sit all year and sign and send them out late December (added by yankeesfan1324)
4. Bobby Doerr - HOF baseball player and one of the best TTM guys ever! (added by indyreds)
5. Mark Appel - #1 overall picks in the MLB draft do not sign via TTM for long, so get him sooner than later!

I agree about Richard Petty having an amazing looking autograph, I sent a card to him a few years ago and when I got it back I was amazed at how good his autograph looked, the other thing that impressed me was I got the card back from him in about Two weeks after I sent it to him...Ed

Paul Molitor is a good free signer depending on when the request is sent. Pat Gillick is good. So is Roland Hemond.

Interesting to go after baseball executives. I am sure many would sign well. That is a direction along with agents that I never went after.Last edited by indyreds; 09-01-2013 at 10:37 PM. Reason: correct my poor spelling

Hemond won the Buck O'Neil Award a few years ago. I asked him which executives he thought would be inducted eventually and responded with Dave Dombrowski. I then sent a photo to Dave to get signed. Also have photos signed by John Mozeliak, Bill DeWitt, Jr., and the one from the Braves, John Schuerholz. A lot of the Spink winners are great at signing.
