I recently purchased two Devil Rays line up cards signed by the mgr for $10.51 shipping incl. !!!!

4-15-01 and 5-28-01 what is really cool is the devil rays changed mgr's in between the two dates, so one has Rothschild the other McRae!!!

b-rod2 sells a lot of lineup cards from the eighties on ebay. The cheaper ones go for about $9.00 shipped, definitly worth it!

Sometimes " lineup card" is ambigously defined, as it can refer either to the big, unofficial posters hung on the dugout walls that keep track of both team's lineups and available substitutes; or to the small official batting-order cards that are handed to umpire and opposing manager. The big posters were being sold recently by the Braves for $50, but only from 2007 games. Previously, they were $100 for more current ones. Bobby Cox does sign them after the game, a feature not found with many teams.

The only small official batting-order cards I have seen were at shows. I bought a 1991 Pirates' one, signed by Leland, for $25. I paid $75 for a 1943 Boston Braves' card for a game at Wrigley for $75. It was when Stengel was manager, but there's no manager signature. The info on both cards matches the game details on retrosheet.org, but there's no other authentication.
