TTM Success - Bryant Packard

This 2019 Bowman Chrome blue refractor f Bryant Packard was a card left over from when I went to an ECU game last season. I missed Packard at the game and put the cards aside.

This season, I didn't see myself getting out to ECU for a game, so I took a couple of the cards and sent them to the school TTM to see if I could get Packard. I sent two cards and he sent one back. Thankfully, it was the better card he sent back. 

Packard (b. 1997) was a 5th round pick by the Tigers in the 2019 June Amateur Draft out of ECU. He played in the minors in 2019 and from 2021 to 2023 in the Tigers system. He would reach AA Erie by the time he retired from playing. Now he is coaching with ECU. He had a 162 hits, 16 home runs and a .250 batting average. 

I mailed to Packard via ECU on March 9 and got the card back on April 27, for a 49-day TAT.

Some 50/50s From Dylan

My friend, Dylan, lives in Connecticut and graphs the Connecticut Tigers.  This season, he took a few 50/50s for me and helped me get a couple cards out of my box.

I was especially happy he took this Bryant Packard and got it signed for me, since I only had the one card.  Packard formerly went to ECU, but I have never tried to graph there.  I have heard it is pretty easy, but I didn't try, and ended up sending this out after Packard was drafted by the Tigers.

Dylan also sent these three cards back.  I always enjoy getting the older stuff out of my boxes.  I've become a bit of a card hoarder, and it really helps to be able to move some of the older stuff.  One of these days, I'll do another show and unload some stuff.  In the meantime, I will reduce my boxes card by card as I get stuff signed.

Thanks for the 50/50s, Dylan!
