On the signing front-

Time for a short version of the signing front as I simply have far too many cards piling up,so a quick post will help that a bit.

I did the Wilmington Blue Rocks in Frederick and the Lexington Legends along with the Lakewood Blue Claws in Hagerstown in late June,which shows you just how much stuff has accumulated when that is the bottom of the pile!
Nice additions for the Blue Rocks and their team set were Jake Odorizzi in his final visit to Frederick before a promotion, Cuban defector Noel Arguelles and pitcher Tyler Sample on a team that had more pitching prospects than hitters.

Both Lexington and Lakewood had yet to release their team set,so I was not loaded for either team.
Ben Heath and Delino DeShields Jr were the top players for Lexington.
DeShields is very nice,signs whatever you have for him,chats and seems like he enjoys signing.

Lakewood pretty much featured Jesse Biddle and Domingo Santana (Now with the Astros) signing the SAL top prospect card along with Anthony Hewitt signing his Bowman top 100 card.
Cameron Rupp also signed his Topps debut card.

Time for a few thanks-

to Tom O'Brien for his help with the Altoona Curve that featured Starling Marte and the Harrisburg Senators and slugger Tyler Moore on his Bowman.
Tom also helps me on the Indy circuit with former Blue Jay Willie Upshaw and added Brandon Pinckney on his 2006 Kinston card,which finished the set!
That rarely happens folks!

Thanks to Mike Peterson for his help with the Columbus Clippers.
Mike added some stuff for me,most notably Jason Kipnis and Lonnie Chisenhall,both are now with the Indians.

This barely scratched the surface,but enabled me to put one stack away without dumping them on the floor!!!!
