    Baseball TTM Help

    Just bought a dozen Trump Signature Series baseballs. I wanna send them out to some players (Yankees and other stars). When is the best time to send them? Before the season ends? Right after the season ends?

    Any other help is appreciated!

    My guess would be before the season ends, but I am no expert.

    ok, let me say this- it depends on who you want to send to- you mention sending to stars- most current MLB stars dont sign through the mail, period, so you may want to check and see if the people you want to send to are good signers. For non-stars, Id get them out now, because if the Yankees make the playoffs, which they most likely will, they wont be doing anything with TTM requests while in the postseason, and a lot of players throw away mail at the end of the year as opposed to opening it

    to assume I haven't checked the TTMM to see if people sign would be incorrect. CC, Mussina, Pettitte, and Yogi Berra sign. I haven't figured out who i want to send to yet. But it's less than 5 guys, and i would only send to guys who definitely sign.
    So you're saying now is better? What about just sending them after the season?

    Yogi is $50 to sign a TTM baseball. I have seen them get'em for $40 but his website does state $50. Good Luck!

    The best time to send would be 3-4 days before the player needs to report to spring training...

    Also i have noticed for sigs like yogi's tell them that you are a student and have a very limited income but you really want your signature then enclose some cash (not necessarily all of it) I have gotten musial and other people that charge this way- it is telling the truth and alot of times they send back the check!

    Oh, so I should wait till then? Why is that the best time?

    Yeah I was planning on doing that. It wouldn't be lying since I'm only 15, and quite short on money. How much do you think I could get away with?

    Mussina and Yogi are gonna go out with the other guys, just to make it easier on me. Yogi's fee is 50 dollars, you are correct.

    Thanks for the info! I'll think about that when I send to him.

    even better than that, I like to head to Spring training, and see who I can get.

    Last year I went to Phils camp and got quite a few big names that usually dont do TTM!

    But, check the TTMM section and you will find too many players that are good TTMers. Your dozen balls will go quickly,and then you will be hooked!
