Early autograph hounds

The first workout isn’t until tomorrow, but when I got here this morning (8 a.m.) there already was a guy sitting in a lawn chair next to the fence, waiting for whatever player happened by. By the time a couple of players did (catchers Russell Martin and Danny Ardoin), the guy had been joined by about a half-dozen other people. Russ and Danny took the time to sign for everyone, something that is a lot easier to do at this stage of camp. … After a lot of afternoon showers yesterday and a dramatic overnight cooldown, it is a beautiful morning here, without a cloud in sight. Still kind of haphazard, though. Tomorrow is the day things take on some semblance of a routine with the first workout.
