Chris Sale Scratched From Tonight's Start Because He Cut Up Throwback Jerseys

Would they sell for a premium because of the story?
Yes, I believe they will sell for top dollar. But if I was the owner, they would go with a mug shot of him for destroying private property. There is no way to defend Sale for this act of childish behavior. A grown man walks to the coaches office and says " Coach you mind skipping me today. I don't think I can perform in this jersey. " And if he says no. You just say. " Well I'm not playing today." But no, this guy grabs a pair of shears and goes to town on everyone's jerseys? What's he going to cut up next? Hide the scissors! Here comes Sale!
This guy is a great pitcher. But he'll probably be remembered for cutting up everyone's jerseys, because he didn't want to play baseball.

What a spoiled brat! Cant pitch in certain jersey. lol Put him in an old time flannel on a 100 degree day in st louis like the old time guys. Some of these newer players are so spoiled. I hope he gets suspended and fined! No one was asking him to pitch in a straightjacket. And yes teams need to do promotions to make money so they can pay the crazy salaries for these young dumb classless morons like Sale.

Figured he would be suspended for " destroying team property"

The jerseys won't be sold at a discount. Chris just tweeted "I told the team, there is NO way this jersey is going on Sale!"

Tip your waitress, folks!

I know....bad.

Peace!

They also did not have twitter/facebook or live reporting constantly taking place. Some of the stories from that era would make the modern day players look like saints. The media for the most part did not report on anything they saw that was damaging to the club or players reputation. Just playing devils advocate!

Excellent point! Didn't think of that.

Bonus: he saved Topps some time and gave them an idea their newest subset of relic cards.

Really though, almost every time I see Sale's name in a story, it makes him seem like a surly jerk. Pressure/ego getting him maybe?

He makes over $4000 a pitch.
I'd wear a suit of armor as a uniform for that. You could even throw a poisnous snake in there with me.
