Joe Mauer has a contract with Tristar and he can't sign sweetspot. But, if you go to TwinsFest he is happy to sign anything you may have without a personalization. So, Braun could of very well signed without personalization if he wanted to. I just go back if your willing to pay him between $100-150 and he collects then he is happy to sign. I love it that his autograph company will have him sign something and then put it on ebay for $400 and people complain about autograph hounds.
