Thoughts on this Mantle
I know he wrote his Ms differently early in his career - my gut says that it's fake based on the lengthy write-up, but I will defer to you all, as you definitely know a lot more about autos than I do.

I don't think either are blatant forgeries. Might be a couple of inconsistencies in the "Mantle" but I'd definitely lean towards good.
The Jackie looks OK to me, "Best Wishes" was a common salutation he used. Might want to compare to any noted "The Brow" clubhouse signatures though as this was probably obtained through the mail. I don't have any of those to compare to.

I think they are both good. The mantle pic is from the April 1953 issue of Sport magazine. The Robinson is also from Sport but I'm not sure which issue.
Here's my Mantle, obviously a much more recent signature

Definitely an early authentic Mickey Mantle autograph.
