This is going to be a VERY busy weekend. There are quite a few MLB caravans going through several states so unless you live in North Carolina (like I do) there should be plenty of free autograph opportunities this weekend.

68 free signings!!! My hands hurt from all that typing. For those of you who went to the Royals Caravan last week, you got a nice surprise, as reported by Tom of Iowa Frank White and Mike Aviles didn’t make it but instead he got to meet and greet with Alex Gordon and Jeff Leonard. He also said only about 30 people showed up so when going to the smaller venues you might have more time rubbing elbows with some real MLB players. As always, if I miss one or two, please leave as a comment what they are and where they are. Also send me your pictures I’d like to post some on the site.
