like sands through the mail...

...these are the first ttm successes i've had this spring.

i sent out a few autograph requests to spring training addresses earlier this spring, but the mailbox had been completely silent until a couple of weeks ago when i received these cards back.  a 2011 topps update jerry sands

and a diamond duos matt kemp/jerry sands

signed by the dodger rookie himself.  that diamond duos card is the one i had purchased from sportlots and wound up getting caught on some scotch tape.  glad i was able to get some use out of it after all.
sands is fighting for a spot on the roster this spring, and to be honest, i have not been following spring training at all.

thanks for signing my cards jerry!
