Re: Lets See Your Ivan 'pudge' Rodriguez Bats

Been awhile since I updated this Pudge bat thread...here's a few I've picked up lately....A couple home run bats, one from the Marlins in 2003 & one from Washington this year...Plus, the one in the middle may be one of my favorite bats...it was used by Pudge opening day this season, for his 2500th game & 20th straight opening day start!! I have to thank Andrew big time for the Pudge Nationals bats (& helmets)!! The opening day bat is a great story, a bat I had hoped to get, lost hope....then by fate he ended up cracking it!! He signed it opening day/2500th game on the side of barrell too ....anyways.....here they are..........

Dang thats crazy. I would never consider getting a players auto on a team bat that never played on the team. But im assuming you were able to aquire the autograph later on??

No unfortunately I havent seen Pudge come back out this way to a show to get his auto on the bat. I couldn't believe it I so wanted a Pudge auto but wasn't going to take a chance ruining a Yankee bat and as I mentioned months later Yanks pick up Pudge lol

Re: Lets See Your Ivan 'pudge' Rodriguez Bats

Funny story, about 2 and a half seasons ago at a baseball show signing Pudge was there. I collect Yankees autographs but so wanted a Pudge auto but I couldnt pull the trigger and said to myself damn with his career why couldnt the Yankees have picked him up so I could of added him to my bat???

(I have one bat loaded with Yankees auto's)

I was seriously considering jumping the gun and getting the auto on the bat anyway with hopes maybe in the future the Yankees will pick him up. Then I said to myself "NO WAY" "THE YANKEES WILL NEVER PICK HIM UP" "NO WAY WILL HE EVER WANT TO PLAY SECOND FIDDLE TO POSADA" "POSADA AND HIM ARE LIKE THE ARCH RIVALS OF THERE PEAKS IN BASEBALL" "NOT GONNA HAPPEN"

Sure enough about 3 to 4 months later in a late season aquiring the Yankees picked up Pudge as a back up to Posada.

As you can imagine a huge "SMH" to myself lol

I don't know much about asi. What is it?

ASI sold a lot of Pudge's bats and gear when he was with the Texas Rangers.

I think ASI was known as Authenticated Sports Investments when they were selling Pudge's items and run by a guy named Scot Monette.

Re: Lets See Your Ivan 'pudge' Rodriguez Bats

I have a bat that is from I believe 1999 because the MLB logo is by the name but it doesn't have ANY pine tar except a little bit about halfway up the bat in one little area. And it doesn't have many ball marks except a few LITTLE scuffs and pudge signed the bat Ivan Rodriguez "game use". So I was wondering what you guys thought. Like did he usually put pine tar on his bats in 1999? And also did his bats from then usually have much use?

Its so hard to be able to tell who actually used an older bat...when it comes to Pudge, he's all over the place. I've seen his bats taped (high and low), have pine tar, have tape and tar, have nothing....hes been so inconsistent....
