Since when have professional ballplayers been the sharpest tools in the shed?

Besides, these days players treat "autographs" and "signatures" as two quite different things. An autograph is a highly stylized, completely illegible glyph which they think looks cool. A signature is their actual name, is (at least somewhat) legible, and is used on legal documents.

So what the hell are they worried about?
