Spring training

[packrat]

Thanks a lot and what address would I use to ship to Andy Pettite

Right now, people are sending to him c/o Yankees ST. Oh -- and make sure you spell his name right as a courtesy to him: Pettitte.

What are the adresses for spring training???

I'm not going to try to list all 30 teams, but someone posted a link in the sports forum, I forget the name of the topic. I also posted a site that you could visit in the same topic.

There are lists of spring training addresses all over the place on the web. I've found about four or five of them. Call me lazy, but to try to list every team is just too much work for my taste.

Also can I get tommy lasorda at st or should I wait until the reg season and send to the stadium? And what are the chances of getting jeter texeira a-rod or albert pujols

A few of those names were covered in previous posts. If you read through them, you would see that I normally respond and give at least the players' success rates. However, your list is way too long and I just can't see myself trying to look them all up at once.

In general, the more popular the player the less likely you will see a success. Some guys plain don't sign, some expect a hefty fee. I will comment on Kaline though -- he always expect a fee/donation of $10.00 per card, cash only. I don't know about the other guys off-hand.

If you are as serious about sending out a lot of cards as I am, I would suggest that you join SportsCollectors.net and pay the $15.00 annual fee. It is pretty cheap when you consider it breaks down to $1.25 per month or so. Then you can see the addresses used and the success rates for each player. Or if you wish, you can sign up for the free membership and view the last two weeks of successes.

I have never seen a return from tex or jeter. My cousin had his a-rod card returned unsigned and pujols charges an arm and a leg for his.

This is my experience or what I know from other successes. If left blank I have no idea

*Lance berkman
*Prince fielder doubt it
*Carlos delgado sent the last 5 years and never got anything
*Jim leyland yes
*Alfonso soriano sometimes
*Magglio ordonez no luck the last 3 St's
*Al kaline {heard he sometimes charges} he alwasy charges, send cash. Check will be returned
*James loney yes but he signes before next years ST so it takes about a year
Jonathon broxton
Matt cain
Noah lowry
Pablo sandavol sometimes, maybe not this year since he got so famous last year
Tim lincecum he sends his own small photo sometimes signed sometimes PP
*Roy halladay LOL
Adrian gonzalez
Ryan howard PP
Cliff lee I got him the last 2 years
Hanley ramirez LOL
Brandon phillips yes
Hank blalock
Josh hamilton {sending si cover} yes but he signs after the season
Eric chavez
Chris carpenter
Bj upton I got him last year
Chad billingsly no luck for me
Jon lester
Jonathon papelbon no luck but a few have had a success
Manny ramirez LOL
David ortiz LOL

I suggest going after the lower tier guys. Most rookies are great about signing. The big name stars are the hardest to get.
