TTM Questions about prospects

ajw · Mar 5, 2009

I would like to get a baseball signed by some of the prospects (and young MLBers) on my Strat-O-Matic team. Has anyone had luck (good or bad) with these guys:

Rick Porcello
Matt Wieters
Max Ramirez
Wilmer Flores
Andrew Miller
Engel Beltre
Neftali Feliz
Scott Elbert
Ryan Zimmerman
Jeff Niemann

I did this several years ago, and most of the players ended up as busts, but it was still cool to have a ball signed by my own team. (Somewhere I have scans of that other ball, I'll post it if I can find them...)

Thanks,

Drew

The TTM/IP section of this website will def. help you. Those guys are pretty good, but I was thinking about doing this myself, so I hope someone will give some good info. Hope this helps and good luck! John

I got Zim last spring, but he will sign the side panel

Off the top of my head, there are a few things regarding the players on your list.

Zimmerman has been using a ghost signer the past few years.
Niemann is almost impossible TTM
Andrew Miller charges a fee for charity c/o the Marlins ($20 I believe)

Overall, nobody on your list is a great signer. You may be able to get a few, or even most, but I would think the odds are pretty high that somewhere along the line your ball wouldn't be returned. Just something to consider, though it does sound like a fun project.

Rick Porcello did not sign co team but did co home
Matt Wieters sometimes worth a shot
Max Ramirez
Wilmer Flores
Andrew Miller got him last ST 2/2 no fee
Engel Beltre
Neftali Feliz signs
Scott Elbert
Ryan Zimmerman ghost
Jeff Niemann no
