On the signing front-

Lots of cards to list with the cardboard piling up,so I decided to knock a few of these off today.
This will nowhere near cover the total,but it might make things a bit more manageable.

We start with the July visit to Hagerstown from the Pirates SAL team,the West Virginia Power.That should tell how many cards have piled up.
Jameson Taillon was terrific as he signed everything for everyone.
Taillon was the top prospect that was the best signer that I have seen this season,although Delino DeShields of Lexington gave him a run for his money.
The Power had several of the Pirates touted pitchers and all were good signers,especially Brooks Pounders and Colton Cain.
Other nice additions were Zac Fuesser and Zack Von Rosenberg on the mound and Drew Maggi of the position players.
The Power were not loaded with position prospects.
This series was notable for the one day appearance for Carlos Alvarez,formerly known as Esmailyn Gonzalez with the Suns.
Alvarez was a player that received a large bonus from the Nationals,but as part of the scandal that dealt with visas,he was not allowed to enter the country for a term.
I had a lot of cards for Alvarez from the days that he was expected to be a Sun in the past and I was able to get him to sign them.
The next day,he was back in Auburn and the NY/Penn league.

The Kinston Indians were in Frederick and I was limited in what I had for the K-Tribe.
The notable additions were long time favorite T.J. House,Chase Burnette and Abner Abreu,who would soon be sent to the Cubs in the Kosuke Fukudome swap.

The Augusta Greenjackets hit Hagerstown and were not loaded with prospects like they had been in 2010.
Notable pickups included Seth Rosin (Who seemed to be in every set known to man),third baseman Adam Duvall and the always terrific pitching coach Steve Kline,who not only signs,but generally takes the time to shoot the bull a bit.

Time to say thanks to Jason Christensen,who always takes care of me from Binghampton.
Jason knocked out this season's B-Mets team set among others throughout the year and wanted to say thanks again to him.
Jason tossed in some extras for me that included Greg Golson and Bubba Bell on cards that I didn't have.
Jason worked on Portland for me and landed Junichi Tazawa,who I always seemed to miss as well as New Hampshire with Adeiny Hechavarria,Henderson Alvarez,Anthony Gose,Mike McDade,Joel Carreno and Chad Jenkins-all great catches.
Notables from the Mets included Matt Den Dekker,Jeurys Familia and Reece Havens.

The pile has just taken a hit,but far from over,look for more signing fronts soon!
