adsarebad Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Dodgers will not be wearing the 2022 all star game patch on the sleeve of the jersey this season? very disappointing, Atlanta did last year, and it is usually something teams do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they've decided to go with a single uniform for the All Star game, I liked teams wearing a patch when hosting. I know they have several memorial patches on the right sleeve, but just put it under the swoosh like the NCAA teams would do for the College World Series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Dodgers have any memorial patches on the right sleeve this year. Last year they did but not this year. Either the All Star Patch or the Dodger Stadium patch would have looked great...not sure why they went with the blank sleeve. 1 Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Carolingian Steamroller Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 The supply chain issues put us at an interesting point, or rather an throwback point. Uniform supply problems, sudden changes in manufacturers, stop gap measures, uneven attention across baseball were all pretty commonplace in the first century of baseball. Teams often relied on rinky dink operators in their home cities to provide the patches, numbers, and repairs that needed to happen. And that's even if they were largely all buying their base uniform from the Spaulding Company (see for example May & Halas for the Cubs). Those providers were subject to any number of problems. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aawagner011 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 The Braves Clubhouse Store had several Jackie Robinson caps on display, but about half of them had the LA Angels 42 instead of the Braves block font. Even the @BravesRetail Instagram page advertised the wrong patch (seen on the road cap). https://www.instagram.com/p/CcYOvb0rb5t/?igshid=NjY2NjE5MzQ= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if that's another supply chain thing but they really should have a Tommy Davis memorial in addition to the other two options that were mentioned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So thats red every game they've worn them except the one yesterday where they wore the alt snake black hat. The regular black hats have not been worn yet this year. And yeah, they look a lot more like they did when they first rebranded to this color scheme back in 2007. I bet because it's new they're wearing the crap out of it early in the year to get more visibility and it'll probably be used less the more we get into summer.

flyersfan Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Fanatics is horrendous in quality for us consumers. Glad to see the teams have the same issues and its a top-down problem, not individual to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmb8 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I wish these supply chain issues were worse and some teams only had gray or white jerseys. Anything to get Fanatics kicked to the curb. Also, in uniform schedule news, the Brewers are back to wearing the pinstripes only during Friday home games. Last two seasons it was all weekend home games. Personal prediction, they made that decision to open up more space to wear their City Connect jerseys, which will be powder blue and become a natural alternate jersey. Also, the Dodger blue 42 on the back was a swing and a miss. Keep the 42 on the back and/or front the team's font, have the patch on the sleeve, and call it a day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably sarcasm, but for teams that expect a certain amount of stock every year, I could see where it would cause some issues. Teams kinda supplement their equipment staff’s time to launder these items by having an alternate set to ease some of that burden. Not having the extra jerseys just means they don’t have anything to swap out for, and all of the jerseys have to be laundered way more often, which trust me from experience, can be a bit of a :censored:. Now, you could argue that there are teams like the Yankees and Dodgers who don’t wear alts, but they supplement that by having extra sets of the home/road jersey. If the Rangers only have, say, 40% of their expected jerseys to work with, that could in the very least be a huge headache.

I work for a hockey store that also carries community lettermen jackets and both have had massive supply chain issues. We recently changed jacket manufacturers to make the time to get the jackets a lot quicker. They’re only supposed to be a few hours away by truck. It was supposed to change the delivery time from 6-8 weeks to 3-4… However since October, letter jackets have take roughly 14-16 weeks to get in. And the manufacturer has nothing really to say to us other than they don’t have the stuff yet… And it’s the same with our various associations’ apparel orders. Everything is months behind. So it makes a ton of sense that random, very specific colors are really hard to come by especially in the quantity needed by an MLB team. I guess it’ll only be time until various teams start running out of grey and white jerseys too. 2 "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

Not sure if I said it in this thread but I'm predicting something based on the peoples flag. Maybe "Brew City" across the front in the 1980s style script.
