I just returned from New Jersey where I did a small signing with Yankees pitcher Chien-Ming Wang. I have done several signings with Wang and really enjoy hanging out with him. He has definitely emerged as an elite pitcher this year. Aside from Mussina, Chien-Ming has been the most consistent pitcher on the Yankees staff. It is scary to think where they would be without him. Tonight Wang is being honored by the Staten Island Yankees. He is, by far, the biggest success to come out of that organization As you all remember my last signing with Wang was in the Starbucks parking lot. Thankfully this occasion was spent in a hotel conference room. He has become an extremely fast signer and is beginning to rival some of his teammates in that department. Chien-Ming is appearing at Last Licks in Thornwood on August 12th along with Bubba Crosby. I am already looking forward to hanging with Wang again. In the past week we have booked several new appearances. Check back tomorrow for an detailed preview of the upcoming month.
