Nike ‘testing different options’ to fix new MLB uniforms as players visibly sweat through jerseys

That link sucks. At least I’m mobile. Get like 50 pictures of advertisements, and not even a single picture of a baseball player in a sweaty uniform.
It’s unbelievable the shit quality product they put out. They made a product that’s paraded on world-wide television every day that is objectively cheap quality with cut-corners.
Geez, I wonder what would have happened if MLB actually started working on the problem 6 weeks ago when it was first brought up rather than denying it?
Not to mention the fonts of the names and numbers look like little league jerseys. Pretty despicable of Nike to sell out and provide a professional sports league with garbage.
I certainly will not buy one
George Costanza is definitely getting canned
How bout (and this is crazy, but you gotta hear me out) go back to the way they were before??
How was that not tested beforehand?
Testing different options? What were the old jerseys some secret formula??
Have they tried making them better?
I hope no one is buying these jerseys. I cringe literally every time I see the names on the back.
$20 China Jerseys are better than these now for fans
it seems the worst are the small letters for the names. They really are hard to read the players’ names from any distance, now.
The only solution is too eliminate fanatics from the mix and actually have Nike manufacture them problem solved. I’m a genius. This one is free Nike, next one is gonna cost ya.

So glad I bought my 179 dollar World Series jersey in time for them to consider changes. Hope that guarantee covers bullshit like this
Its called undershirts, assholes
I honestly can’t believe how often the MLB shoots itself in the foot.
Kinda feels like if you didn’t cut corners the first time, you wouldn’t have to fix a bunch of new problems.
Is this Nike or Fanatics fault?
So they didn’t test it before putting them out?
Fanatics owns Majestic, couldn’t they just use Majestics designs from 2019
In there defense, professional athletes rarely sweat especially when playing in the summer /s
It’s hilarious that they are “testing different options” to solve this. How is this hard for them to understand? Baseball uniforms have been fine for decades when they were using quality materials and manufacturing. Then they decide to shift to cheap knockoff versions of their uniforms with disastrous results, and somehow they can’t figure out how to solve the problem without testing how to fix it?
Is this a new thing? Lord knows how many ti.es I’ve seen it in the past.
It’s almost like cutting ties with fanatics would solve all their problems
