Is your g/u business/collecting picking up some pace? Mine is !
After a bit a dry spell of not acquiring any game bats , it seems things are picking up . I finally found and bought a Devil Rays pitcher's bat ( a first for me) . It's a Rawlings Jorge Sosa , with a ton of rack marks but no use that I can see . Some dealers call rack marks use . Has his #59 on both ends . Stamped 2002 his rookie year . Only one problem he never got a chance to have an American League at-bat . I would assume that would explain the lack of use . Also got a Old Hickory Greg Vaughn . will post pistures tomorrow. Goog night to all except on the west coast, you're still out having fun !

just ordered 4 bats from Left Field Collectibles today , got like 3 more still coming from ebay and I got to meet a ebayer at his work to pick a Old Hickory Sandberg bat he found last night . I won two bat off him and asked him to check for more, meeting him at 5pm.....when it rains it pours .....at this rate I should break the 150 (all Devil Rays) mark before opening day....... -

They are all in a closet , I can try and do a pic to show the entire display better , but w/having to size the pics down , makes it harder. A few months ago I didn't know how to post pics online or download pics ......stay tuned...

Nice bat---I saw that one (he once struck out the first nine batters he faced at AAA Durham, and his name randomly popped into my head when I was on eBay), but decided against it.Comment

Well , I am getting closer to my estimate of 150 devil ray bats b4 opening day . Unless things pick up I will end up with around 140 , 10 short . I have to re-count them this week ....still a few days left ....Comment

Hello Camaro,
I particularly like the Felix Escalona bat, the Yankees had him in 2005 kept him in the minors till he was brought up when AROD got hurt then Jeter to back them upI was dissapointed when they sent him back down. I have his Game Used Jersey from the Yankees.
I dont know where he is at now but he was a good player.Comment

Hi there Suave,
I like the Escalona myself, I got it from Blue Chip Sports and rather cheap . Plus it is signed nicely in black sharpie and a rookie bat of his .
What's up with the Yanks (not trying to rub anything in) ? Are they starting to turn it around ? What do you think? Looks like it ! They're catching up to the .500 mark, one game away . Does anyone think Clemens will help out ? The Devil Rays aren't looking too shabby for having a poor pitching staff ....
Thanks,
DavidComment

Camaro yeah I dont understand the Yankees moves sometimes and I know I would get slammed for some of my feelings about expecially I think they should have kept Bubba Crosby over Damon but thats just me.
Well it looks like we might get there, but we still got a long ways to go. I definitely think Clemens will help but I always believe we will know exactly where were at, after the mid season trades.Comment

Hey camaro, I had to set up for the homeshow at the Trop today and figured you'd get a kick out of a couple of pics. First is our display and next is my buddy Chris in the on-deck circle.
BTW, the new turf is terrible. Like walking on spongecake with millions of little rubber particles getting in your shoes at the same time.

wow ! the stadium looks that empty when they are having a game ...... LOL ... they have been only doing what 8k a game ?
Carl Crawford was complaining about leg pain from the new turf, it was in the paper last week .
If you are new to the area and in town for a few nights , go to Wing House on US 19 just past Park Blvd. on your left going North . The girls are young, cute and friendly and the food is great ! the wings are great too !Comment
