Marquis could be headed to the Rockies

    The Rockies would send us back right-handed reliever Luis Vizcaino.  Vizcaino is 34 and is set to earn $3.5 million in 2009.  In 2008, he posted a 5.28 ERA in 46 innings with a 1.46 WHIP.  Here's the link.

Since Vizcaino is going to earn 3.5 million, does this mean we will be covering anymore of Marquis's salary?  If not, I definitely like it.  More bullpen depth is a good thing...tho I wonder what is the plan for the 5th starter spot.

Discuss among yourselves.

OT: Question about Cubs Convention 2009

I have never attended a Cubs Convention before and was planning on doing so this year.  I was curious as to what current and former players would be there...there is a list on cubs.com for 2008 attendees but they are not guaranteed to be there this year.  Also, my real question pertains to how the autograph and photo sessions work.  Are there usually a lot of good opportunities for autographs, for example does Ryno sign autographs and take photos last year? Any information would be much appreciated.
