Bogus Mauer jersey...buyer beware

[hblakewolf]

According to the seller, the shirt is not from 2003, rather, last season.

Dear hblakewolf,

If you do some work, you'll see that Mauer had two rehab starts at Ft. Myers last year (hence the "Best Wishes, Joe Mauer" that he now signs the jersey with. (The Best Wishes) has been tried to be removed by the previous owner.

Yeah, I expected more BS excuses, but here's some more info:

1) The person he bought it from told me 2003, so someone is lying there.

2) Mauer only wears 50. I have seen over a dozen different Mauer jerseys at the Proshops/Twinsfest, etc from 2004-current. Every single one is a 50. Why would he have fit into a 46???

3) In 2007, Mauer played one game in Fort Myers and wore #35 (they were also at home, not away).

Here's another photo from that game.
