(UPDATE) Dave Henderson died on Dec. 27, 2015
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.
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.
