TTM Success - Tyler Baum

I have come to enjoy getting recent draft picks cards signed.  I usually just hoard the Bowman cards for in-person graphing, but this year has killed that.

This 2019 Bowman Draft card of A's prospect, Tyler Baum, turned out nicely.  He also included a signed index card thanking me for writing to him.

Baum (b. 1998) was a second round pick in the 2019 June Amateur Draft by the A's out of UNC-Chapel Hill.  He pitched in 11 games in Low A ball last summer where he went 0-3 with 34 strike outs and a 4.70 ERA.

I mailed to Baum on May 30 and got the card back signed on June 5, for a 6-day TAT.
