Using the last of my stamps to send out one more request, this may be my last one for a while but hopefully I'll start seeing some of these come back!
Jim Price (18) - Former Tigers backup catcher and current color commentator.

2 more going out today, bringing my total on the week up to 16 total requests! I haven't seen any back yet, but I expect them to start trickling in in the next few weeks.
David Murphy (101) - Current LA Angels left fielder has been a good signer throughout his career.
Cecil Cooper (241) - Former Brewers great, has always been a good signer as well.
My total home run # that is out on request currently is: 2,617

Sending three more out today.
Charlie Blackmon (43) - Charlie is still a great signer, despite being a rising star for the Rockies. 43 Home runs so far, could be quite a few more before his career is over.
Jed Lowrie (61) - He's from near my hometown, and has always been a good signer. If he can stay healthy, another 100 or so home runs is not out of the question for Jed.
Greg Gagne (111) - One of the best signers in the business, hard to pass up adding 111 home runs to the total!

I decided to go big today, sending out four requests, all to players who are in the top 200 all time in Home runs, two in the top 100. Only McGwire is a risky move, the other three have all been historically great signers!
Sent out for 8/24:
Matt Williams (378) - Current coach of the Washington Nationals, 72nd all time in Home Runs
Will Clark (284) - Works for the SF Giants, always has been an excellent signer
Mark McGwire (583) - Longshot, but there have been some successes from the Dodgers with McGwire. And it's hard to pass up the chance to get 583 home runs added to my collection, good for tenth most all time.
Matt Stairs (265) - Excellent signer through the Phillies, and one of the most powerful players of his generation

Two more requests sent out today:
Brad Ausmus (80 Home runs) - not exactly a power hitter, but manages my favorite team and is known as a great signer.
Randy Wolf (5 Home runs) - I also collect Tiger pitcher autographs, and Randy is making his debut for the Tigers this afternoon, he's known as a great signer as well so hopefully I will see these both back soon!

Welcome!
I am attempting to collect 10,000 Major League home runs via autograph through the mail. My collection so far can be viewed on the "Collection" page. Here I will track my successes and what cards I have sent out. Any suggestions or comments can be made in the comments on these pages, thank you!
Waiting on: Rusty Greer (119), Tom Brookens (71), CJ Cron (20), John Olerud (255) = 465 total HR
