This may be a long shot, but it’s certainly worth trying… don’tcha think??
I am a huge Greg Maddux fan, and I have tried several times to secure an autograph of his. I missed him back at a Chicago Cubs convention in the late 1980′s, and then again when his Cubs traveled to Florida to play the Marlins during his second run with the Cubbies. I just don’t want to buy one…
I have read very recently that Maddux is working with the pitching staff for the Padres at their Spring Training facility in Arizona. So that’s where this letter is headed tomorrow morning.
Whether this works or doesn’t work, I certainly think that the risk(times 100) is worth the reward!!! Wish me luck!!!

Good luck with this one. If you have success I may follow your lead and go for it too. Maddux has long been a favorite of mine since his first year in Atlanta. Sadly I didn’t get to see him much before his move to Atlanta because the cable system we had back then didn’t carry WGN, so no Cubs games.
Others have had luck with him signing TTM, so maybe you’ll have the same.
I sent one off to him last week as well. I read somewhere that he was signing ttm last season. So, hopefully that will carry over into Spring Training.
Luck has been on your side in the past; Im sure Maddux will follow…
