Thanks guys.

I might pay the $129 for the helmet - my bats are already signed.

I would prefer his signature on the baseballs, but not at $100 a pop. Packs - thanks for the Spring Training idea. I was thinking of heading to AZ next spring, so this is more incentive.

Regarding Zunino, he's very special as a defensive catcher, but his bat speaks for itself. He does seem to be sort of a clutch hitter, which might be why McLendon's overlooking the average a little.

Agreed on this point;e.g-keeping with your Ryan example theme, I can't imagine a 2015 Ryan sharpie signature on this item:
