Re: July 2014 "Pick-Ups" Thread

Wasn't looking but was able to make a trade for this awesome Matt Adams Bat. Anyone have any info on this it would be much appreciated. I found a photo of Adams using a max bat this season but I imagine its from 2012. I love the ball transfers on this bat.

Re: July 2014 "Pick-Ups" Thread

Just an FYI about this item...there were a couple of these listed a few years back all with his name on them.

The sellers all gave conflicting reports of where they bought these, and I actually won one in an auction. When I told the seller I was getting this signed, he got spooked and cancelled the auction.

I printed out the auction and brought it to Rizzo when he was in Iowa, and he was pretty mad, saying his parents in Florida had all of his gloves..and called his agent on the spot to ask about them.

Thanks for the info, the seller is a massive glove collector and has spotless feedback on eBay. He included a COA he signed indicating that he purchased it from a collector that had obtained it from Rizzo directly. Who knows the origin, but it looks good and has indicators consistent with Rizzo's use (wear pattern showing index finger left outside glove, and extra long finger and thumb loops left untied). It's also his model glove. Interesting that there were a few of these around that were perhaps supposed to stay with Rizzo. I have not seen a glove of his available except one cubs authentics had available through his charity for $1,250 without a COA except that it came from Rizzo's charity.

Just picked up this circa 2001-2002 Adam Dunn bat. It's photo matched to a 2002 baseball card (check out the Photo-Matched Game Used thread!).

Tony! My thoughts exactly! It could go either way of course. Hoping for a full and speedy recovery!

I hope so too! I've passed on an items i wanted for the same reason, and then turned out to be a big regret because I did. But that's how it kind of goes with our thinking. A player gets hot, everyone jumps on it. He slows down or gets hurt, and we hesitate.

Re: July 2014 "Pick-Ups" Thread

Still a nice ball to have. Early in his career and it's not like his career is over.

Agreed 100%, I guess I've been a Reds fan for too long He will be fine and hopefully starting in LF in late 2015 or 2016, BUT only because I didn't get my "cursed prospect" hands on that ball

I would have still tried to win as Winker is a beast for hitting. He'll recover. They'll get him caught up in AZ Fall League or Winter ball. It was a great hit!
