Nomar Will Greet Red Sox This Weekend:
ON BEING #1 IN N.L. ALL STAR VOTES AT SHORTSTOP:
"'It's nice and flattering,' Garciaparra said of the All-Star voting. 'I've always had wonderful support from the fans everywhere, from the place where I was at for so long [Boston] to here in Chicago. The support has been unbelievable. It tells me they want to see me back as much as I want to come back. I appreciate it so much.
ON NEIFI PEREZ:
'I also think they're looking at the box score and seeing the shortstop for the Cubs doing so well and think it's me, and I realize how great Neifi's doing,' he said. 'It's him. Hopefully, we'll have a Cubs shortstop at the All-Star Game.
'There should be a Cubs shortstop there, and it's the guy who's playing there right now,' Garciaparra said. 'He's been unbelievable. He definitely deserves it.'"
"Yes, I did run in to Nomar. He's hobbling." -Curt Schilling on Nomar (weei)
(Schilling and Nomar are rehabbing at the Athletes Performance Center in Arizona)
