If you send something to a prospect's MLB club, will they forward it? Or should I just send it to the minor league club. And I heard MLB clubs forward mail to players in the offseason, so in the offseason, would you just send it to the big league club as well? Any info on these and on top prospects that never sign would be great.

I would send it to their minor league team, Ive never heard of teams forwarding mail, but I could be wrong

I'd be interested in knowing who your source is that told you that MLB teams forward fan mail to the players during the off season. Doesn't happen. Your best bet is to send no later than mid-August or wait until spring training.

As for who signs and who doesn't, check the feedback section daily for TTM successes or RTS'es. There is also a baseball TTM thread in the discussion forum that you can look through. Or if you have a card that is easy to replace, for instance, you could take a chance. You never know.

Probably the biggest reason you never heard that is because they don't. If you are lucky, they might RTS the mail.

Somebody claimed to have success with Hamilton c/o the Rangers in November last year, and somebody backed him up, saying that team's forward mail to them, looks like they were wrong, thanks

I have seen a handful of successes where a player has been traded and items still got signed. I've also heard that someone sent to one team before the player was traded...and then that player rec'd all of his mail when his new team played his old team. So I'm not sure.

I'd send to the minor league team if I were you. I think its your best shot.
