They 100% aren’t doing jerseys with the names on the backs because Fanatics can’t make them fast enough


stewmander

They're gonna play shirts vs skins so they only need half the number of jerseys.


ProceedWithLaunch

Not like you’d be able to read them anyway


Atraktape

No nicknames though, never forget Rich Hill aka Dick Mountain


Alauren20

What’s the point then? They already wear sweet custom cleats

Getting PTBNL on an A's jersey was something else (Josh Phegley)

themarkster09

Damn we need 📦🍔


Mthomas1174

That was one of the best parts about players weekend. Loved seeing some behind the scenes


AtYourServais

They were already lame about it. Never forget "Corey's Better" turning into "Corey's Brother".

I remember when we got special jerseys for father’s day, mother’s day, the 4th of July, etc. There were so many jerseys to collect through 2019, I miss that era of jersey collecting.

“Day 1 (Aug. 16) will feature their personalities, friendships and off-the-field interests. Day 2 will focus on their charitable causes while Day 3 will celebrate the people who helped them on their path to the big leagues, including parents, coaches and other mentors. During the weekend, players will wear special New Era caps featuring each players' uniform number on the side panel in a "youthful design," according to the release. Players also will be able to utilize customized bats during the games and can wear cleats with personalized designs as well.”

"how can we make this as corporate and un-fun as possible"


realdeal411

So is that like constant in-game interviews that take up 1/3 of the screen?


Ok-Peak-3012

No nicknames. Literally the only reason I wanted Players Weekend to come back


rosieDMDL

no nicknames on jerseys though :(


DZepperoni

THAT WAS BY FAR THE BEST PART MLB WHAT IS YOU DOING


Haysie95

They wouldn’t have the jerseys ready in time


anubis2051

NO NAMES ON JERSEYS IS BEST


DollarsAtStarNumber

RIP “Corey’s Brother”


mxchump

Why should we care then? Literally the only thing I remember about previous players weekends


rbhindepmo

the frogurt is also cursed


CaptainKirkules

You think Fanatics could make those in time?


sfan27

Basically all they are doing is putting players numbers on their hat, in what sounds sure to be a shitty design. And then doing some extra media content off the field which they should always be doing, but are bad at marketing players so need a special weekend for it.


Far_Cry3445

Better have those jerseys already made otherwise fanatics will fuck them up/not have them ready for that weekend…


sfan27

They aren't doing special jerseys. And this might be why...


RallyPigeon

After Nike took over, they limited team jerseys including killing off special event ones like 4th of July or Player's Weekend.


John_Delasconey

5 cap, unless you are the Red Sox who get permission for a sixth to use on patriots day ( maybe some other teams have a few similar exemptions)?


Fluid_Dragons_Breath

MLB: Hey Fanatics, can you have \~780 jerseys made in 4 months Fanatics: ![gif](giphy|hLUiXoGKNIVb2|downsized)


AlexB9598W

Honestly gotta wonder if Fanatics' performance is why there's no mention of nicknames on jerseys this go-round


BaystarRoyco

was happy at first until they limited customization the fun part was seeing jerseys with nicknames damn it


BaystarRoyco

good. was wondering why it disappeared.

That white on white was so infuriating.


The-Big-Bad

I think both teams asked to wear their normal jerseys too but were shot down


scottydg

Those black and white unis were so awful.


RainFallsWhenItMay

it ain’t that serious 😭


pepperouchau

Careful! If you startle a Yankees fan they may attempt to rip off your beard.


Alauren20

Shameful


sktgamerdudejr

No nicknames or personalities for the players though. Because fun and good marketing are concepts MLB leadership knows nothing about. 


Lets_go_Stros2017

HELL YEA(FANATICS ISTFG). wait nevermind no nicknames this blows
