Greene doesn't play for the Cards anymore...I think he signed with the Rangers

[mattconn]

true, yeah i havent looked up the bottom half yet to send out. thanks. im just wondering what the odds are for reyes, etc.

Good list. I'm sending to about 75% of your list too.

I read everyone's opinions on who will or won't sign and what not; but I'm just going to take the gamble and send to all the guys I want. I find that waiting to see who is signing usually results on everyone writing after the success is posted then the guy gets a huge pile in three days, thus greatly decreasing the chances.

For 88 cents and a card it's worth the gamble :)

[mattconn]

Absolutely, it is probably the best time to gamble on a big name player. I'm hopefully going to get a few more, and then sporadically send them out based on report dates and if they're pitchers and pos players.

Awesome list! I'm taking a shot a bunch of those guys too - especially the Mets. I think about 1/2 of the 40 man roster is getting something from me. And, yes, it pained me too, but since my nephew is a Phillies fan I'm also sending to Ben Francisco and a few other Phils.

Good Luck!

Nyjer Morgan- c/o Pittsburgh Pirates

Nyjer is with the Nationals now.

Make sure to send to Moyer and Blanton! Got them returned in 2 weeks during the season. Moose, thank you for that.

[JVazz29]

Moyer and Blanton are at the top of my Phillies list. Though, Blanton was a 'fail' for me last season, but I think I sent it too close to the playoffs.

Also, if interested as a Mets fan - Brian Schneider, catcher, now with the Phillies.

[mattconn]

Schneider sent back 3 for me too last season. He's a good signer.
