Hello All!
We were hoping with some assistance with this baseball, after some research on our end, it is believed to be possibly 2005-2006 Detroit Tigers signed, but was hoping for a review from a person with a little more expertise to see if we should send in for authentication, would be a minimum of $150, so we just wanted opinions prior?
Based on comparison of the career dates of the signatures I was able to make out, Jamie Walker was only on the team to 2006, Kenny Rogers, Placido Polanco and Justin Verlander were not signed until 2005, so I was able to narrow down a '05-'06 time frame!
Ability to make out the Kenny Rogers signature who signed with (Detroit Career: 2005-2008).
Appears to be a Jeremy Bonderman signature (Detroit Career: 2003-2010, 2013, however Kenny Rogers was not apart of the team in '13).
Mike Maroth (Detroit Career: 2002-2007; only M. M. initials from 2005 I could find).
Jamie Walker, appears to be on the ball, as well. (Detroit Career: 2002-2006)
D.T.D Y - signature matches 2005 Dmitri Young card I was able to locate on eBay. (Detroit Career: 2002-2006)
Placido E. Polanco signature matches a Phillies card signature I was able to locate, as well, appears following he no longer uses the "E." (Detroit Career 2005-2009)
CK M - Craig Monroe, signature matches a 2005 signature where he connects the "C" to the "K" (Detroit Career: 2002-2007)
And pretty sure the J V is Justin Verlander - matches his 2005 signature based on what I was able to research, signed with us in 2005 (Detroit Career: 2005-2017), possible rookie signature?
About 21 signatures (if I counted right!) and this was some of the info I was able to gather (just on review myself), hoping someone may be able to confirm if I am accurate or any additional details?
Thanks so much for your time and any assistance offered is so much appreciated!
