SIGNING UPDATES (last update 10/25)
***IF A SIGNING IS NOT LISTED HERE, WE ARE STILL ACCEPTING ITEMS AND THE DUE DATE HAS BEEN MOVED/HASN’T PASSED YET. OR IF IT IS A PAST SIGNING, ITEMS HAVE ALREADY BEEN MAILED BACK**
**REMEMBER: I make sure players are available in close proximity to the due date. Once the due date passes, I starting the scheduling process. I cannot predict a player's life/schedule. There will often be waits- most short, some longer. If you aren't okay with this, do not participate.

Pending signings:
Gary Matthews Sr. - this is now tenatively scheduled for mid-November as I spoke to Sarge today. (updated 10/25/2024)
Johnny Damon- this signing was completed by MLSE (Matt Liben) and shipped back to me, but one of two boxes appears to have been lost by UPS. I have a contact I've been working with, and he insists that it will turn up, however, it hasn't happened yet. I do know that Matt shipped these back, because one box did make it back to me. (updated 10/25/24)
Jazz Chisholm- this was a partnership with Matt Liben as well. With the trade to the Yankees, it appears that his agency wants to try to redo the deal, so the signing is on hold until whatever is figured out in that regard. (updated 10/25/2024)
Eddie Rosario- This signing is in conjunction with Duck's Dugout and we have been told by Eddie's agent that he will be flying in to complete the signing in the offseason, and likely soon. (updated 10/25/2024)
