2016 Spring Training success and discussion thread

[WIsportsfan19]

Do you usually get a better success rate in spring training or for the regular season?

I have gotten a 30-40% return rate for ST and 50-60% for the regular season. Plus, you can see who signs during ST and send to them as soon as the regular season starts.

Sent out to KC Totals coach and former Brewers 3B Sale Sveum. Took 8 days and signed 2 cards and a 2015 ST schedule. He has a great success rate so I recommend sending to him

Sent out a few Yankees prospects and other guys that are good signers. Hoping for a good return! Excited to see everyone's successes.

I won't be sending spring training requests this year. I have had too much bad luck in the past and I decided to just cut my losses. I look forward to seeing who you guys get back though! I will send the bigger names that return during ST during the regular season. Hopefully I will reel in a better MLB success rate than I have in the past by doing so.

I feel your pain there as my 3 year ST pain is well documented. But I did send out 6 requests just to see.

Yeah I feel like the short length of the spring training season compared to a regular season has had the biggest effect on my ST struggle. Best of luck on the ones you do send!
