re: DAT: Your World Champion Houston Astros 2018 Spring Training Thread

I am the closest thing to a Ted Williams historian you have or will ever meet.

I have all but 4 of his playing days cards ('39-'60), have read everything written on the man, went to the old Cooperstown South in Citrus Hills, FL, and befriended one of his last fishing guides, who would trade fishing trips when Ted's health declined, for signed memorabilia.

The fact that Kyle Tucker is Ted's reincarnation and will be an Astro is not lost on me. I've collected many other items over the years, and I'm already planning some possible Williams-Tucker pieces. LOL
