How bad does this look?


This image got released today. It's Masahiro Tanaka's Series 2 RC. It looks hilarious, honestly. The interlocking NY looks like it was just stamped on. It looks nothing like a part of the actual jersey.

There is a patch on Tanaka's left sleeve that is from Mariano Rivera Day at the Stadium last year.

His hat looks dorky.

This is just silly.

  1. It's a joke that series 2 is mostly photoshopped.

  2. I looks like they pasted his head onto someone else's body, but then again, the photoshopped jersey just looks... cartoonish

  4. Wow, I'm shocked they didn't crop his head on someone. So then what? Find a Yank with a similar pose, and build the jersey piece by piece?

  5. That picture kind of reminds me the semi-poorly photoshopped cards in the 70's. Not sure if that's a good thing though.

  6. Ah, probably a purposeful harkening back to the days of awful airbrushing in the 60's and 70's.....right? No?

    (sigh)
