Dave Henderson and David Segui Respond to Autograph Requests, Jose Oquendo is a No Go

Marie Lowe
David Segui and Dave Henderson are the latest former Major League Baseball players to respond to through the mail autograph requests.

I can't say the same for Jose Quendo.

It took Segui, the former New York Met, a short 26 days to respond to the request.

In addition to the Mets, Segui played for the Baltimore Orioles, Montreal Expos, Seattle Mariners, Toronto Blue Jays, Texas Rangers, and the Cleveland Indians.

He began his career with the Orioles in 1990 and came back to the Orioles in 2001 where he finished his career in 2004.

During his 15 seasons, Segui never played in a playoff game, never named an All Star and finished his career with a batting average of .291.

Segui also has the distinction of being named in the Mitchell Report and may have provided a timeline that may have implicated Roger Clemens.

Henderson began his career in 1981 with the Mariners. He later played with the Boston Red Sox, San Fransico Giants, Oakland As, and finished his career with the Kansas City Royals.

He was an All-Star in 1991, and also played in four World Series and four American League Championship Series.

Henderson continues his champion ways after baseball by collecting donations for the Angelman Syndrome Foundation.

Angelman Syndrome is a neuro-genetic disorder characterized by intellectual and developmental delay.

Henderson's son was diagnosed with the disease 19 years ago.

Henderson signs autographs for donations as small as $3-$5.

Fans can send their card and donation to

Dave Henderson,

If your looking to for a guranteed autograph and a way to do something good, sending Henderson is a great way to accomplish both goals.

As for Jose Oqãuendo fans, I can't report success.

I sent a request to Oquendo in care of the St. Louis Cardinals.

After 11 days the request came back refused and unable to forward.

I have seen success posted for Oquendo, so the search for a good address will continue.

Other players that I have sent requests to are Livan Hernandez, Latroy Hawkins, Tony Pena, Omar Vizquel, Tim Wakefield, Tommy John, Steve Garvey, Ron Gant, Bryan Harvey, Tommy Lasorda, Ray Fontenot, Jason Thompson, Leon Durham, Franklin Stubbs, Larry McWilliams, Dave Winfield, Jay Tibbs, Mike Scioscia, Ken Howell, Eric Davis, Randy Milligan, Tim Burke, Jay Bell, Danny Tartabull, Joe Magrane, Roger McDowell, Rick Aguilera, Nick Esasky, Kevin Seitzer, Dave Burba, Chris Sabo, Charlie Hayes, Tommy Gregg, Junior Ortiz, , Mariano Duncan, Mo Vaughn, Andy Hawkins, Howard Johnson, Matt Nokes, Bill Fahey, Julio Franco, Allan Trammell, and Steve Avery.

    For some reason you have no comment box on "My Top All Time Ranking Articles on Associated Content" and "Trainer Answers Fitness Questions". Like you I'm not to sure why some articles get turned down and others do not. I have stopped writing for up-front payments because it takes a week for the articles to get back to me and by that time my wrestling news is old news.
