TTM Success - Joey Hammond

Here is a nice 2002 Bowman that I got from Ryan that I got signed TTM by former Orioles farmhand, Joey Hammond.  Ryan sent me a bunch of 2002-2005 Bowman cards to try TTM since I commented that I didn't have many cards from that era.  I had never heard of Hammond, so i was excited to get the card back and look into how hos career played out.

Hammond (b. 1977) was a 25th round pick by the Orioles in the 1998 June Amateur Draft out of UNC. He played in the minors from 1998 to 2008 in the Orioles and Phillies systems.  He would reach AAA prior to hanging it up.

He had 1,144 hits, 36 home runs and a .274 batting average across 11 seasons in the minors.

I mailed to Hammond on January 22 and got the card back on January 29 for a 7-day TAT.
