Ive updated my Cuddyer site with the following items:

Ive had the 2009 bat for about 9 months, the bobbles for EVER, just never got them uploaded :lol:
Picked up the 2012 hat from FanHQ
The 2003 bat, 2011 wrist guard and 2011 AS jersey (back into my collection) I traded my 2007 GU Jersey and 2009 BP hat for.
For me it was a good trade, I got the AS jersey back (now signed and inscribed) :-) got a sweet rose colored GU bat (rare to find these) and a unique item in the wrist guard.

Only Cuddyer as far as I know. Claudia, his wife, worked with Shaun to have him sell a few of Michaels items and the proceeds going to the Boys and Girls Club.

That's pretty neat! I was wondering if the players they had sites with had some exlcusive deal with them or something. I have a quick question for you as well. How do you display your Cuddyer game used jerseys?

Everybody has their own preference on how signed jerseys/game worn jerseys should be displayed. Some people like mannequins (more so for the game worn jerseys, especially if there is a lot of wear on the front) others people prefer to have their jerseys framed. I have a small prospect jersey collection (2 bigger ones incoming this week) that I just keep in the closet because I am younger,and currently at college, I would rather spend money on more jerseys other than framing them at such expensive prices.
Here is a great site for frames if anyone is interested
Wholesale Poster Frames - Movie Poster Frame Supplier and Custom Picture Framing. - WholesalePosterFrames.com

Sorry I didnt get back to your PM yet
For displaying purposes, I do the framing myself. I have cases I have bought from Daves Customs, he sets up at Twinsfest, they are 90ish, but they are great quality. I do my own pinning of the jerseys in the cases, or with these, they have a hanger you can hang them from too. I prefer to do the pinning cause the jerseys can tend to bunch up at the bottom.
This photo is from 2010 I believe, showing how they hang. The three that I have have red backgrounds, which I prefer.

Heres what I did with the frame for mine, I flipped it horizontally and pinned in, I think it looks better

You can also go to Michaels and get the shadowbox frame, like the one below, do the pinning yourself, for under $50 with their 50% off coupons.

With your Span jersey (being smaller than my Cuddyer's), you probably could get away with hanging it on a hanger in that Daves Customs display and it would look good. Or you could get the shadow box I show and pin it either vertically or horizontally and it would look nice.

I remember seeing a couple of Mauer ones that size before Chris. It was quite a few years ago and they were asking $500 for them. As much as I tried, I couldn't convince my mom to get it lol
