Anybody recognize this autograph?

Guys...........Some of you enjoy this game, so here's another one to decipher. This signature is on an AL Budig baseball. I picked it up at a flea market last year for $1 and it's possible it could be a Tiger, but I have no idea. It's almost a cross between Obama and Brad Ausmus. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.............Matt

I am bad at this, but is that Roger Clemens?

Jason-
That's nowhere near Clemens. It does in fact look to be Ausmus!

Looks like Ryan Christenson, former Mariners top prospect.

I'm leaning Ausmus, but sheesh...I'll bet you could sell that as a Barack Obama if you wanted...

Ausmus first pic, Ryan C. second...

I don't feel so bad if that is Brad Ausmus. These guys are terrible. This is why I have no interest in new autographs.

Jason. I'm right there with you. The more I look at it, maybe it really is Ausmus, but who really wants an unreadable autograph? I guess in this case, at this moment, the ball is still worth more than the combination of the sig. and ball. One of the only nice, readable (somewhat) modern day autographs I actually like is Pedro Martinez's.
