Any Minor League fans?

[brianga26]

Hey guys, I am seeing if we can maybe set up a group of guys to get autos for one another in leagues that some of us are not close to.
I am near the Sally league (got Bryce Harper 2 weeks ago), the Southern League (Cheaten-nooga just down the road), and International League (Gwinnett Braves about 30 mins away).
So what I am wondering is how many IP auto guys do we have here? And if you are, what league? Stadiums are near by?

thanks

I am near nowhere, so I can't really help unless there is a USA Collegiate player that finds his way into the West division of the Northwoods League.

I would post this in the IP board. There are a lot of minor league graphers in there.

Speaking of minor league fans, are there any milb fantasy leagues?

I live near the New Britain Rock Cats (AA-Twins). I am also a season ticket holder on the visiting team side of the field, just so I can get autos. I pick up autos for a few people every once in a while.

This past weekend I got three balls signed by 16 players of the Rock Cats roster (player meet and greet lunch). I am doing the meet and greet in August also, so hopefully some new players get called up by then.

this sounds like a great idea.

My home park is CT tigers of the NYPL.
I also go to many AA NB rockcats (eastern League) games as well....or atleast when decent prospects come through.

Here is my question though, how is it executed?

Is it a group 50/50 or are you getting the autos and swapping them, or just sending them to each other?

In any case, yes it is an excellent idea.

I am thinking 50/50. I only get one ball, and one card signed. I think the guys who get a book signed are 1. being greedy 2. causing me problems just getting my small stuff signed

2nd'd.....can anyone tell me why someone needs 10 Ian Desmond auto's? He is a great guy and has the possibility of being a good SS but 10/night is a bit ridiculous. Makes the rest of us look like we are going to try and sell

Done

thanks BCA

So where is everyone?

there's different aspects of this though. I have no problem w/ people getting a bunch singed as long as they aren't all the same card / item.

 

[brianga26]

here is my thing. I know Harper is 1 per. I doubt I could do an auto. Now on the same feeling. Machado is a pretty good signer (so I hear) I can probably get one or two extra

I do some potomac games, but I cant take to much stuff, as I only go to a few games a year. No Bryce Harper if he ends up at Potomac. some of the better prospects there are Eury Perez, Destin Hood, Danny Rosenbaum, Cutter Dykstra, Jeff Kobernus, Rick Hague, and J.P. Ramirez. roster can be found below.

Im looking for 50/50 for mostly Syracuse, Harrisburg, Hagerstown, Aburn

 

[RNCoyote]

I live in Midland (home of A's Double A affiliate Midland Rockhounds). I live about 10 minutes from the stadium

 

[brianga26]

you guys see who I am near. Sandberg, Montero will be here soon. so will Mark Prior.. Low A, Harper next week (yea right!) and Asheville Tourist (Kyle Parker, and Russ Wilson)

 

[imac220]

I am one of the Eastern League guys on here. I go to about 1-2 games/week during the school year and 2-3/week in the summer. You can keep track of all of my successes in the thread I created a long while ago!

The games that I attend are the Harrisburg Senators (Nationals AA). I am more than willing to do 50/50 with anyone interested. Please just shoot me a PM

 

[BooneNug582]

I live in Western NC and am only 30 minutes away from the Asheville Tourists (Colorado Lo-A) and am about an hour away from the Tennessee Smokies (Chicago Cubs AA). If anybody needs to know anything about signing habits or possible trades or 50/50's, hit me up. I usually attend at least one game a homestand for the Tourists and go to Tennessee for the better teams.

 

[brianga26]

I am going to see Asheville next week in Rome. I would like a Brett Jackson on a Pro Debut card, and a ball. I think he might get called up to AAA if he keeps on playing like he has..
Smokies are loaded this year. I know there are quite a few guys (McNutt, LeMahieu, Flaherty) that I would like to get a card of, maybe an autographed ball of Mcnutt. I am going to get Ryne Sandberg in a few weeks in Gwinnett. He signs two per. I have him already on a ball. I can hook you up on a ball/card. I don't do 8x10's.

I can take the Low A Dodgers team, the Great Lakes Loons. No Lenny Harris and only want premium items for Zach Lee.

I only get to a handful of games a year, because I only get chances to go during the school year. I have extras of those who were in Topps Debut Series One last year if anybody wants to do a trade.
