I think it would be at least 27,900 stubs just for the jerseys needed for Griffey (20 diamond jerseys, with the cheapest being the Mariners Alt Road jersey, which was selling at 1395 each last I checked). Perhaps you could do it cheaper with gold or silver jerseys, but it would take a lot more of them to get to the 15K value required.

In other words...it will cost a lot.
I just saw one estimate posted a couple of weeks ago saying the Griffey exchange "isn't that bad" compared to some other Immortals...followed by an estimate of 80,000 to 90,000 stubs for the exchanges. Obviously the market shifts and changes with time, so that may have gone up or down significantly. At least Griffey played for more than one team, so there are more items to choose from to potentially keep the cost down.
