4/23 Cubs (Maddux) @ Cardinals (Marquis) 1:15 PM WGN TV

Breaking news from Busch Stadium........

 

Vance the CUBS fan reports that Neifi Perez is still refusing to sign autographs.

 

Some things never change, eh?

 

now.... back to your regularly scheduled Game Thread.

 

Why would anyone want his autograph?

[Rusch33]

Who has Vance actually gotten?

 

Just curious.

 

I believe Vance has team balls for 2004 & 2005 that have every player except Neifi.

 

 

Another stupid question, but how does he get them?

 

Just stand by the dugout and ask? Or wait until the game is over?

[cubs0097]

Hendry up next on pre-game show... will be talking to Kasper

[Fred Hornkohl]

To put this into perspective, a Perez certified signed card will set you back $1.66 on ebay

 

Damn !! That's up from $1.39 last year !!

By the dugout, after the game, and before the game when they're just getting to the ballpark.

Is this a joke or does Neifi really not sign balls?

[cubs0097]

Hendry said Gooze will pitch out of pen today... will sit down with Larry and Baker tommorow and decide on starter for Wed.

Vance is very skilled at getting player autographs. I was very impressed at the list of people he had talked to this weekend!

He has refused Vance numerous times.

that's due to his team saving heroics down the stretch last year :D

[Fro]

Hendry said on WGN that Guzman will be available out of the pen today or tommorrow and they'll decide if he gets a start Wednesday on Monday.

Yet another reason to not like Neifi.

 

Pujols and Lee can sign balls, but not Neifi. His signature is too valuable.

Hey.... last game I went to with Vance, he introduced me to Jim Hendry. I was blown away that Hendry remembered Vance !!

[Blueheart05]

I don't wish injuries on any team but, I'd like to see the Cards minus Pujols, Mulder and Suppan (the Cub equivalent of Lee, Prior and Wood) with their weak bullpen, you're looking at 60-70 win team easy.

 

Mulder and Soupcan = Prior and Wood?

[Balsa]

Must....avoid.....sweep....

[tinkers1]

Hey I've met Jim Hendry and Andy McPahil but thats because I use to date the Cubs strength and conditioning coach.

[Vinestal]

Why do the A's have an elephant for a mascot? I know they have had an elephant in the team insigna, but why? What does an elephant have to do with Athletics?

[Flames24Rulz]

1 pitch, 1 out.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre grounded out to short, 6-3

[radarluv1]

perfect start

[Andy]

1 pitch, 1 out. Thanks, Slappy.

Elephant's have good memories so they always make A's.

 

I don't have a clue.

[UMFan83]

This just in: Pierre still bad.
