I've done fairly well with Yankees prospects this spring in terms of returned TTMs. Still waiting on the big leaguers to answer some dang mail. However, hopefully this is from a future big leaguer. Yankees 2013 first round pick, Ian Clarkin, signed and returned my card in about two weeks. It's an insert from 2013 Bowman Draft featuring Clarkin and Aaron Judge, taken by the Yankees with the 32nd and 33rd overall picks this past June.
Clarkin is high ceiling young lefty, something that is a major commodity. From the San Diego area, he has a ton of experience pitching for Team USA junior teams. I like that. Clarkin only tossed a few innings after signing, and will likely spend this season in rookie ball.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
Awesome success man! Hope you can get Judge to sign the other half for you ;).
