Over the past week there have been a few instances of scheduled, area autograph appearances being either cancelled or postponed. In case you hadn't taken note earlier, here is a quick rundown of those changes:

Brad Lidge

About a month ago, the 2008 Phillies closer was announced as the featured signer at the annual Ephrata Lions Club Sports Card Show. The press release promised some great prices - $20 and $25 for autographs. Guess they were too good to be true. An update on the Lions Club homepage states Lidge will no longer be appearing. Replacement signer is TBD.

Brandon Boykin/Mychal Kendricks

The duo, previously scheduled for an in-store appearance at Sports Vault in King of Prussia Mall, has been moved over to the December Philly Show a little more than a week later. Probably a good move, considering the built in crowd that will be in attendance at the show.

Claude Giroux

Unlike the past few years, we have not seen much of Giroux this season (yet). It looks like we'll be waiting a little longer, as The Captain's appearance at The Court at King of Prussia Mall has been pushed back to January. Rumors he is buying time to hope for an improved record have not been substantiated.
