The highest # in MLB AUTH right now is FJ 586232. And they need to correct their description - it says TOM Pomeranz instead of DREW.

Hope you enjoy the pics!!!

On Monday @ Opening Day, my buddy Aaron Heinrich came by my seat to say hi - he's the Director of Retail Marketing for the Rockies - and let me know they have a new thing... a small GU booth at Coors Field!

I bought THREE (3) Opening Day Locker Plates (all MLB certified):

Jason Giambi (got signed today!)
Michael Cuddyer (got signed last night!)
Tyler Colvin (I will get signed this weekend)

and ONE (1) GU Ball from Opening Day (they only sold 12).

I went by today and landed one of Cuddy's GU Spring Training Caps!!!

So, I guess now if you are looking for items, let me know.

If you contact me with a phone number, I can probably call you from the stadium and get Aaron to take your card over the phone and I can mail your item to you... check with Joe (MVP2000) for whom I facilitated his purchase of Giambi's used Fan Fest Jersey in January over the phone through Aaron.

I'll post picture's soon of the items I picked up.

All the best -

Smitty

Wow,
Glad they finally set that up.
Really looking forward to seeing what you picked up.

Take care,

Smitty, do we have any updates on this? Thanks

Hello all... I will try to get a better look next home stand. It's a small booth and they were packed tonight.

The only thing I know from tonight is that they were NOT offering any GU balls since if Moyer won (which he did - history was made) Moyer, The Rockies Archives and the HOF would get 1st dibs on any GU items from tonights game.

I don't have Season Tickets, so this may take some time to get back to, so please be patient.

Do you have access to ANY Jamie Moyer stuff? He is one of my faves.

Hey Rockies fans...I'll be shocked if anyone can help me out on this but thought I'd try. Josh Phelps signed a minor league deal in 2010. Don't think he made it through Spring Training, but I know he had Rockies bats made up...I missed out on one on eBay. Anyone have one or could check out the Rockies team store discussed in this thread? Thanks in advance for ANY help...

I'd also be in the market for any other Phelps-related Rockies items, too!

Follow UP for Rockies GU booth...

I talked to Aaron this past weekend about the GU booth and they are still working out the kinks.

Outside of GU baseballs and a handful of bats, nothing new has come through since Opening Day weekend.

Part of the issue is MLB and MLB Authentication.

While I have no problem accepting an LOA from the Rockies signed by Aaron (I've known him for almost 20 years and know he is a stand up guy), some people only want items with MLB Authentication Holograms.

The problem Aaron is having is that MLB is trying to set his prices. He doesn't want anything to be over $500 for this 1st year as they get established and build up a clientele at the ballpark. $500 items for Aaron would usually be GU jerseys from marquee players (Tulo, Cargo, Helton, Giambi, Cuddyer or Fowler) and their bats would be between $200 - $400 or so.

MLB wants Aaron to ask $2,000 for a Tulo/Cargo/Helton/Giambi GU bat or jersey, not $500.

Aaron is prepping to sell the Rockies Jackie Robinson Day jerseys, but does not have a date yet or pricing. When I know, you will all know.

Just wanted to give an update on what is going on right now.
