I think its a week or two before the All-Star game. Usually announced by Baseball America if I am not mistaken. I am pumped for them to announce it also so I can prepare.

I got tickets in the infield box (near behind of home plate) but a friend is trying to get me in the 1st/3rd base box as I want to be closer to the field and the dugouts.

Where are you?

For the derby/futures game/all star game we're outfield dead center in left field. They'll open up the infield though for signing, a buddy of mine went 2 years go in St. Louis and they have a guaranteed signing time for like 45 minutes where all the guys line up on their sides so i'm not too worried about getting infield tix. I was wondering if Harper would be there but that would be a huge signing, on the other hand....I hope he is there so I could get everyone besides him, i'll just get him again in the fall league this year. I love gettin' autos at chase field at all the 'graph spots!!!

Excuse my dumb question: By opening the infield you mean that part of the seats right? Not the actual field for autographs?

Where do you recommend me in Chase Field?

I'll be in left field also for the Home Run Derby =)

No worries on the question they'll open up the infield seating for signing, the security guards at chase let people down there until like 45 minutes before the game. I have a couple spots are fail proof for getting stuff signed. We can meet up actually for the futures game. I know the HR derby and the game itself are going to be crazy for graphs so i'm not planning on anything except for balls for those events

I forgot all about the futures game and Bryce Harper is gonna be there...Luckily I have a few unsigned OMLB but I'm not sure where the prospects will be staying. I know a lot of players stay at the Ritz Carlton Biltmore. :ugeek:

I hope they sign a lot at the stadium. Don't want to be deported by trespassing charges. I've heard hotel security is really though.
