Baseball Happenings is proud to present a private signing with legendary Cuban Hall of Fame pitcher and former Pittsburgh Pirate, Gonzalo "Cholly" Naranjo. The signing will take place on February 16, 2010. All items are due by February 11, 2010.

Cholly was an integral part of the legendary Almendares team from 1952-1961. He was signed by legendary scout "Papa" Joe Cambria to the Washington Senators, and had a catch with President Eisenhower before the home opener in 1954. He was signed by the Pittsburgh Pirates by Branch Rickey and was a member of the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast League (PCL) before making his debut with the Pirates in 1956 alongside his roommates and future Hall of Famers Bill Mazeroski and Roberto Clemente.

I love seeing private signings by some of the more obscure players. That's how a lot of us complete some tough team projects. I also appreciate that the prices remind me of when I first started "purchasing" autographs. Those were the days! Keep up the good work.

Yeah, I'm doing it to help him out. I'll be down there visiting him anyways, so I figured I'd share some of the access that I have. He's one of those players that didn't play long enough to qualify for the pension and things have been somewhat rocky since he came back from Cuba in the 90's.
