More FSL with a big league bonus...



More prospect fun, with the St. Lucie Mets coming to town. The Mets number two and number three prospects (according to BA) Wilmer Flores and Cesar Puello are with the club, as well as first round pick Matt Harvey and top ten organizational prospect Jeurys Familia. I was able to get all of them with relative ease, plus I was finally able to get Rays farmhand and top ten prospect Alex Colome.

But the best part of the night was the fact that the Mets decided to keep Jason Bay with St. Lucie for one more rehab start before being called up for the weekend series with the Diamondbacks. He signed a 4x6 Mets postcard for me, which I am very excited for as Jason is one guy who has always been a toughie for me.

Florida State League 4-19-11


Finally got a home Stone Crabs series with some worthwhile prospects coming into town. I took advantage of the day game Sunday to get a couple of 8x10 shots, namely Cardinals #2 top prospect Zach Cox, and Hak-Ju Lee and Jake Thompson, who both started the season in the top ten prospects for the Rays organization. I got all of those 3 signed tonight along with cards of Zach Cox and Jake Thompson. However, the big victory of the night was getting Shelby Miller, top Cardinals prospect, on a sweet spot ROMLB. He pitched tonight and I was able to get a few pictures of him before the shadows crept in, and hopefully I can get an 8x10 signed the next time he is in town.
