This brings my total of autographs on the seat back to 9.

I've also added an autographed 8x10 of Lenny Dykstra which I won on a Facebook auction that comes with an COA from JAG Marketing.

and finally I added another GU Locker Name Plate to my collection from former Met Terrance Long. Its from Opening Day in 2005 while he was with the Royals. I'm hoping to get it signed by Terrance while at the Hall of Fame Classic in May.


I have a few local card shops I buy from and this past friday I hit one of them and bought 4 packs of cards. 3 Jumbo Topps 2016 and 1 mini box from 2016 Topps Musuem Collection. 1 of the 3 packs of Topps I pulled a Clayton Kershaw Gold Pin card which is a decent hit. The Best hit came out of the Museum Collection, my first metal frame card and its a Gold Frame Clayton Kershaw silver auto out of /15.


The Atlantic League season starts this coming Thursday with the Ducks opening up in Somerset. I plan on attending the Saturday game. The Ducks then go to New Britain for a series before there home opener on the April 28th
