Padrographs # 1196 to 1199



While doing the giveaways I neglected updating the Padrographs.
#1196, I already had the San Diego Chicken autographed card, but I didn't have one of the Friar so I picked this one up on the Bay.

#1197, Hudson Head was drafted by the Padres last year and amazingly according to the Trading Card Data Base he has 129 cards.  I got this off of ebay after comparing it to the auto on some logoless Panini cards.
#1198, I made this card awhile back for an autograph dealer I know and he had sent it to Alex and we thought they were gone and never coming back.  A month or so after everyone had gone into quarantine he got them back, so I got one.  Alex pitched in 31 games for the Padres in 2012.
#1199 Phil Hughes was traded to the Padres from the Twins in 2018 and appeared in 16 games for the Padres in 2019 before being released in August of 2019.  I made this during Spring Training of 2019 and it was returned after he left the team.  I was alerted of an address by a fellow blogger.  

I only know of one possibility for sure for #1200.  It will be interesting to see whom that is.

Good stuff. Glad to see you get Phil Hughes. Maybe I should try making a custom for him to sign.

Some game show I was watching the other asked the question of what Padres mascot was the first to have a baseball card. The contestant reasonably guess the Swinging Friar, but of course the answer was The Chicken.

That Friar autographed mascot card is awesome! Just added it to the eBay watchlist.
