Obtaining Autographs

I am taking my daughters to Saturday's game (3:05).  In the past we have arrived two hours early and lined up by the bullpen/tarps; they have been able to get quite a few autographs.  

There are certain players, that come over and sign autographs regularly (Murton, Marshall, relief pitchers) but there are several that do not.  My daugters would like to get autographs from Zambrano, Jones, Pierre, and Theroit.

I heard that prior to the game, there is a chance to get autographs outside the park by the players parking lot.  Has anyone done this?  Do the above players sign here?  What time would we have to be there and where exactly should we go?

Thank you for your assistance.

Murton Signings
We have been to about 10 games this year and Murton signed autographs at 8 or 9 of them.  He is one of the most faithful signers.  My girls recently have pulled back when he comes over or give the autograph away to a young fan because they have 3 or 4 signed baseballs already.  Of the 10 times, we have never seen Carlos sign one autograph; even Greg M came over twice, but only signed a few.

How would you like to meet Murton, have him sign a few things and then take flyball practice with him.  He opportunity is yours, Matt will be at Walt Disney World in December as part of the AAA trip.

players lot
its kinda hit or miss, the daygonzalez got traded he signed for a few minutes onhis way out, but if its a get away day or something you almost never get anyone

here's where you go, on Waveland, over by the car wash there is a low fence with cars parked inside. stand by the gaurdrails, facing wrigley back towards Clark.  there is usually a small crowd, but most of the time they let the kids get closer

bring a pen or sharpie and good luck

Write up a contract for a carpet cleaning
and have Freddie Bynum sign it, he'll need a job in a week.
