Jordan Wicks Follows the Rules

 No surprise here.  When he threw his first pitch on Sunday, Jordan Wicks became a rule follower for my autograph collection. While that was a good thing, his performance was not.  He gave up five runs in four innings, though just two were earned.  Hopefully he turns things around in his next start.

There are 13 Cubs on the current roster with a certified autograph on a card in a year that they played for the Cubs and the card shows them as a Cub.  Half the roster is a pretty good percentage.  They're names are in bold in the list below.

The total number of rule-followers is 165.
