Washington Nationals Thread

[DJaeger22]

Since the Nats clinched last night I thought it would be appropriate to start a Nationals thread.

I'll start with the man who finished last nights game.

Super stoked about the Nats and the season that they are having. Here are a few pictures of my collection. I have tried to condense it down as much as possible. I also have on the way a 2012 Ryan Zimmerman game used bat that I should be getting next week. Enjoy!

3 pairs of Ryan Zimmerman cleats and 3 pairs of batting gloves from different years

Always looking for Washington Nationals Items especially 2005 and 2012 items

[DJaeger22]

Welcome to the forum. Did you get autograph tickets or are you trying outside of the convention center.

[Pfrisbie]

Thanks I was only able to get one voucher. Hoping to get Moore or Mattheus in that session or catch them somewhere at the convention center.

Here are a few Nationals from 2005 (Endy Chavez and Preston Wilson). The Syracuse Chiefs #7 was worn by Danny Espinosa, and #35 is a Potomac Nationals jersey worn by Ian Desmond and later by Chris Marrero. Lots more to post, mostly current Nats' jerseys from their minor league days.

Pfrisbie, very nice Nats items! Thanks for sharing and welcome to the forum!

Mark, love the jerseys! I want to try and add some more Nats jerseys to my collections during this upcoming season.

I'm seriously jealous that you guys get to attend Nats fest this upcoming weekend. I'm in FL so I would love to hear all about it and see some pics.

I have a few new items that I haven't posted yet. Will try to add some pictures tomorrow :D

[amgmap]

Hey everyone! Here is most recent addition, which I just received today. I'm super stoked about adding this beauty to my Ryan Zimmerman collection. It's a game used uncracked bat from his rookie season in 2006. What makes the bat unique is that he gave the bat to Andruw Jones and added an unusual inscription.


http://i927.photobucket.com/albums/ad114/amgmap/IMG_3393_zpsf864e7de.jpg

[amgmap]

I've also added a pair of batting gloves from R. Zimmerman, Ian Desmond, a game used base, and a game used bat from Jordan Zimmermann.

The other large pick up that I acquired a few months ago was Wilson Ramos' home set of catcher's gear. The gear shows awesome use and he signed most every piece. I currently have it displayed on a wall.

Love the Wilson Ramos gear and the way you have it displayed. Thanks for sharing.

Andrew... I replied to your email.

Saw on another site a few pick ups from Nats fest with very rare Navy Yard Patch game on game used jerseys. Never even knew they had a special patch made for one game.

[allstarsplus]

Besides the items I picked up for others, my personal fave pickup for my collection is a Wilson Ramos 2013 with the Navy Yard memorial patch.

[amgmap]

Awesome Ramos jersey, Andrew! Thanks for all your help this weekend. I couldn't have built my collection without you :)

[indyred]

Those are sweet patches. Did team sell off all Navy patch jerseys at Nats fest or was it just a few.

[allstarsplus]

I only saw 5 jerseys with the patch. They actually sold most of them on auction on MLB near the end of the season.

If you want one, let me know and I will see what I can find.

[allstarsplus]

I have at least style matched this Haren with the Navy Yard memorial patch. I may have also figured out why some of the jerseys didn't have them. Initially the patch was on the chest and that was removed and put on the sleeve.

69062

[allstarsplus]

Here's a pic of the home white jerseys as they moved the jersey patch to the sleeve from the chest.

Another collector told me that he purchased some of the September 20th jerseys on auction and the chest patches were removed.

I am thinking that these jerseys with the sleeve patch are is out there.

69066

[allstarsplus]

and some jerseys didn't have any patch. Same game and no patch on Strasburg's sleeve or chest. He did have a sleeve patch on his next start on Sept 27 on his road jersey.

I have some of my pick ups from Nats Fest to post when Photobucket starts working.

Excited to see what you were able to add to your collection DJaeger22!

I think my most unique piece in my Nats collection is a Bryce Harper rookie year game used Memorial Day cap with personal inscriptions inside, 3 of which are photo matched.

[DJaeger22]

Great Nats gear everyone! Who's going to the game Friday? It's supposed to be a red out.

[Mattapan03]

Can you drop me a quick email to talk some Nats stuff?

Those are some great items.

I signed Jordan Zimmermann to his 1st memorabilia deal in an exclusive we did back in 2009 which was his Rookie year. Yesterday was amazing for both Jordan and his catcher Wilson Ramos who I have rep'd for years.

73941

We hope to come out with some no-hitter items.

[amgmap]

Andrew, if you get any items let me know as I picked up a pair of his rookie cleats from you back in 2009...seems like forever lol

Now you have a Rookie pair of cleats from the 1st pitcher to throw a no-hitter in Nats history!

I still have his 1st bat with his last name spelled Zimmerman and a 2nd "N" added in black Sharpie!

I hate the Nationals, and it kills me to say this, but that is beautiful!

Thank you very much, I actually was lucky enough to work directly with the team on a few occasions that why I fabricated this one.

I'm no Nationals fan, but I collect stuff related to baseball history, so picked up balls from the 18-inning NLDS game #2
