TTM & IP Success/Failure Thread for April - June 2013

[MrMet]

Depends on the situation, but what it usually refers to is when one guy has the opportunity to get the autograph of a player another guy wants. The guy who is requesting an auto sends what he wants signed to the guy who can get the auto, as well as something for him (i.e. another item for him to keep or money). The guy then gets the autograph, and sends it back to the guy who initially requested the auto. Sorry for the paragraph

Gotcha.
Makes sense, thanks

Went to Gwinnett today. Got Bauer, Chen, etc. No Dice K. He stayed out in the outfield almost till first pitch warming up. Trevor is a super nice guy. We talked for a while. I met him last year in Chattanooga, and he seemed to remember me. We discussed his off season move from AZ. He did not hold back his displeasure for the dbacks organization.. anyway.. good times.. Might go back on Tuesday for the Day game to get Dice K and Chisenhall

Yesterday was Colts Mini Camp at Lucas Oil Stadium. It was a free event and my wife is a big Colts fan, so we went. The players signed for about 20 minutes and she did pretty well.

I had gotten her a signed Bob Sanders helmet a couple of years ago and she decided to get that signed. Joe Reitz' signature got smudged when one of the other players grabbed the helmet to sign it.

The signatures from yesterday in no particular order:

Lanear Sampson
Jabin Sambrano
Griff Whalen
Greg Toler
Allen Chapman
LaRon Landry
Vick Ballard
Dominique Jones
Dan Moore
Jerrell Freeman
Kavell Conner
Monte Simmons
Rick Schmeig
Donald Thomas
Martin Tevaseau
Anthony Castonzo
Joe Reitz
Justice Cunningham
Head Coach Chuck Pagano

As a Colts fan, I'm envious, but I'm very happy for your good fortune. Enjoy!

Finally got a return today

Max Fried 2/2: 1 Card and an Index Card in which he thanked me for my letter. Awesome to see a top prospect do something like that.

Got Shawn Boskie in yesterday after only 9 days out. He threw in a testimonial card as well. Pretty cool return for my Cubs auto collection.
