Greg Billo

Royals prospect Greg Billo signed a 2012 Bowman Prospects Purple in 14 days c/o Royals Spring Training.  Like Billo, I'm a fan of a lot of the local Chicago area products that end up getting drafted.  Billo is from the southern suburbs and graduated from Sandburg High School.  Hopefully a strong 2014 season can progress him through the minor league levels.

Alex Meyer

My first Spring Training success came in today as Minnesota Twins #3 prospect Alex Meyer signed a 2013 Bowman Prospects card in 13 days c/o Twins Spring Training.  Nice to get that first ST success; especially from a good, young pitcher with a bright career ahead of him.

Jim Bunning

Hall of Fame pitcher and ex United States Senator (R-KY) Jim Bunning signed a 2005 SP Legendary Cuts, a 2007 Topps Heritage Flashback, and a 2013 Allen & Ginter in 15 days c/o Home.  I really admire someone that could accomplish so much in two completely different fields; baseball and politics.  Definitely a nice success.

Wade Boggs

Got a nice quick one in today as Wade Boggs signed a 1987 Topps and a 2012 Topps Gypsy Queen in 13 days c/o Home.  A nice success from the Hall of Famer!

Dustin Hermanson

Dustin Hermanson signed a 2005 Topps in 19 days c/o Home.  I'm real excited for this return as Hermanson was a key asset to the '05 White Sox.  This also helps with that 2005 White Sox project.  I'm now at 7/25, so still a lot of work left to do.
