Well, I guess I'm gonna go bang my head against a wall, and then eventually rewrite him. Guh. Thanks for the heads up.

Chuck Porter on 82 Topps blue sharpie, and Tim Dillard on 2012 Topps in black sharpie. Dillard wrote back a pretty nice letter as well.

 

Also recieved RTS that I mailed to Jeff Suppan at Soup's Bar and Grill

[DocLuna7]

Sorry, dumb question but what is RTS?

The dreaded Return To Sender. It appears it's still in business, I gotta check the address.

[DocLuna7]

Got it. Yep, should have known that. Thank you.

Johnny Briggs 1972 Topps. Sent him 5 bucks hoping he'd sign two, only signed one. There's a lotta cards I sent out and haven't received many back yet. Hopefully some start trickling in soon.

To those in the know, what are the odds Aramis Ramirez returns an 8x10 to me if I send one to him to be autographed?

 

I have a good photo of him when he played his rehab games with the T-Rats, and I'm wondering if it is worth the risk of postage to send it to him or not...

 

Also, what is the standard protocol when sending photos as far as number sent? Would it be uncool to send 2, or would it be better to stick with one and possibly improve the odds of a return?

 

Thanks!

In my opinion, you could send Ramirez 1 or 100 photos and none of them are coming back signed. If you really want it signed, Waukesha Sports is having a signing coming up with him.

[Bikeage77]

Of the 84 people that have sent him items. 0 have recieved something signed back. Save it for On Deck in February (he still has a one year option, correct?)

[TURBO]

Thanks for the information guys... I'm not a big autograph guy outside of the T-Rats players, and don't make it to the Milwaukee area for signings... I suppose there is always the chance he makes it back to Appleton on another rehab assignment this or next season.

Got Skip Lockwood back on a 71 and 72 Topps cards. I sent him a couple extras and told him to keep some, mostly wanted 70 and 71. Prolly shouldn't have gotten greedy by sending 8 cards. He sent all the extras back though.

Does anyone know if Jose Hernandez has a good return rate through the mail? From what I hear he is a coach in the Orioles' minor league system.

Yes he does. Season ends at the end of the month. Better get it out

Where do they advertise these signings? I can never seem to find any info online and only hear about them through this site.

At the team store itself, and the John and Cait blog advertises it.

Brewers pitchers Mike Fiers, Brandon Kintzler, Tom Gorzellany & Will Smith along with bullpen coach Lee Tunnel all autographed a Baseball for my son at Miller Park today. (We went in right when the gates opened and went down to the field level to see if he could get autographs). It was great to see the players taking the time like that. I'd estimate that Fiers must've signed 200 autographs, he was out there signing for 30 minutes straight or so....

Greg Brock on two 87 Topps Traded cards in blue sharpie. This was the second time I wrote him, as the first time he musta just moved from Milwaukee out west. Got this one back in about a week.

[BrewersSuperCollector]

Frank Tepedino...OMLB...also sent his own signed card

Rick Waits 1983 Topps Traded in black sharpie.
