50-50 Returns From Cam

More 50/50 returns came in over the last few days (along with some more TTMs), so I have some nice cards to show off.  A package came in from Cam, who got a few Pennsylvania teams for me.  The above 2020 Bowman Chrome of Bryson Stott turned out nicely, and is a huge addition to my autograph album.
Cam hooked me up with several former Greensboro Grasshoppers who have moved on, so these were able to come out of my boxes.  I love the Nick Gonzalez from 2020 Bowmans Best, as well as the Heritage Minors cards he helped me with.
I'm pretty sure I'm officially out of Tim Cate cards.  I had split them between Cam and my friend, Patrick, and I believe all have come back signed.
The Hoy Park cards went out to my friend, Gerard, earlier in the season with the hope that he would get them done, but a change in his plans cause them to not get signed.  Thankfully, he sent them back fast and I was able to get them on to Cam.  I had forgotten that Cam was going to pick me up a Myrtle Beach set, so he got Kevin Made for me and also a couple guys I got on my own.  So, now, I have two Myrtle Beach team sets I can pull from.
Finally, here is another 2021 Heritage Minors that Cam was able to get done for me, Ji-Hwan Bae.  I really enjoyed this set, and have gotten a ton of them signed.  I'm not pursuing the entire set as of yet, but it would be a fun one to try.

Thank you so much for the 50/50 returns, Cam.  I hope we can do this again next season.

Various 50-50s From Patrick

Taking a couple days off from posting didn't put me any farther behind than I thought I would be, which is nice.  I still have several 50/50s I need to catch up on and what will probably end up being a card dump post of stuff that I just can't tell where it came from.  I did, however, figure out which signed cards I got back from my friend, Patrick, and got them all into this post.
Patrick took a bunch of cards for Wilmington and Harrisburg for me the last to seasons, and did pretty well getting me most of my cards signed.  I was glad he was able to get Tim Cate done for me; he helped me finish a couple of the duals with Owen White that I had already posted a while back.
He also helped me knock out some random cards, as well as a few Carolina League All Star cards.  I wish they would bring back the league all star games.  It is so stupid that the minor leagues haven't been having them.
Patrick helped me get a 2011 Bowman Chrome signed.  I haven't been through that box in a while, since there haven't been many guys I've seen lately in that set.  I probably will go through that box soon and get some TTMs from it.
Finally, Patrick got a few more Frank Viola cards done for me.  I still have several of his cards, in case I see him at High Point again.

I appreciate Patrick getting these cards signed for me.  I didn't send him as many cards this season, as we both were busy, but he does have a package he is going to send back soon.  I also owe him some of his cards, so I need to get them in the mail too.
