My friend Gerard has sent me a few packages of signed cards lately. I combined them so I could try to catch up a bit on posts. He went to the Cape Cod League over the last few weeks and got a few cards signed for me. He told me in advance that he would see Rintaro Sasaki, so I bought two Leaf Metal cards and sent them along. I got this numbered one back signed, and Gerard kept the base card. It helped him have some stuff to take with him to the games and it got me a sweet card for the autograph album.
Gerard added some Jarrod Saltalamacchia cards to the album, along with some Dennis Cook cards. The Team USA cards also are great. I finally added some 2025 Stars and Stripes to the album with a Derrick Smith and Alex Sosa. The Matthew Dallas came from a pair of cards that I had prepped for graphing early in the Bird Dawgs season for one of their opponents only to find out that was the wrong Matthew Dallas.
Gerard finished off all of the Jake Sanford cards that I had.
Not to mention, he finished off all of the Saltalamacchia cards, as well. As far as I know, at least. He also made a deal with someone to get Mason McCoy to sign the above 2024 Topps Update that I started when I got Chandler Seagle earlier in the year.
He took some Carolina Mudcats cards from me when we met up in Durham a month or so ago. He got Chandler Welch and Luis Pena for me.
Finally, Gerard had this beat up 2012 Topps Allen Craig that he had gotten signed. He gave it to me for the album, probably because I sent him so many Craig cards over the years. Who knows why it is so beat up.
Thanks for the autographs, Gerard!
