Ragtop's Spring Training Success

[ragtop12]

So... Mariano Rivera must hate me... again nothing from him. I've sent each of the last 4 years and NADA! Ugh. Anywho, here is what I got in this year thus far. I got a late start this year and didn't get as many sent out as usual (typically send 200-250, most being 500 one spring!). I sent out a dozen early and then the rest last week (and only got to sort through my A through F cards, so most will be in that last name letter range)

Total sent = 90
Total received = 7
Percent =

Received:
Brandon Allen
Lars Anderson
Brad Ausmus
Anthony Bass
Jared Burton
Scott Downs
Larry Rothschild

RTS:
Matt Anderson, Not with Team (Rockies)

I hope. i sent out around the same time as everyone else who is getting them back... but we will see. I hope he signs as I want to add it to my son's future collection which I just started for him.

You interested in buying at all? I am getting rid of most of my card collection....lots of autos too so I can raise some money for kiddos vacation.

Not right now, sorry. I am trying to get rid os some myself. I have (8)3200 count boxes full of certified autos in toploaders, and 12, yes 12, 3200 count boxes of TTM/IP autos in penny sleeves!

lol, that doesn't include the 1000's of photos I have! My cards I have organize don an ongoing basis, so it isn't that bad. I generally just sort them every few months. The photos on the other hand... ugh...

Nice successes!
I sent out over 100 this ST and only got 5 back. (no Mo, but I did get a Lars)

Hang in there! Mo may still pull through. Great successes, my friend!

 

[ragtop12]

1 today, but a bad one... RTS from Matt Anderson c/o Rockies... not with team, should have done my Homework!

 

[tigsfan]

I don't think Matt Anderson was with a team this year... however in 2011 he was with the Phillies (and I nabbed him ). Hopefully that wasn't a sign of RTS' to come.
