Game Used Wil Myers Jersey from 6/28/16 where Myers hit a 3 run HR his 18th HR of year.

Are you willing to sell any of these?

1989 Alomar.
Glad they added the "S". Wasn't sure if it was Senior, Junior or Roberto.

Love the AZ patch.

2016 Derek Norris Blueberry . . . Photo-matched to him walking around, not hitting, as was his custom with the Padres.

1986 Steve Garvey with nice use.

People don't remember the hoopla over San Diego's signing of Garvey or that he was, possibly, headed to the Cubs prior to signing.

With the Grav's post career trials and tribulations, people also forget he was one of the clutch players of his era. Disappointed he and Dale Murphy never really gained HOF consideration. The Gil Hodges of his generation?

I remember what you've recalled here about the offseason of 1982-83. Garvey was hated by a lot of Cubs fans after he signed with the Padres...not so much because of the signing itself, but of the belief that he never seriously considered the Cubs, and used them just to drive up the price to play for a preferred SoCal ballclub.
