They don't have names on their jersey. Never have. It's something I love and many others as well. This is beneath them and all of MLB.

It was ridiculous when the XFL did it and it's just as bad now that MLB is doing it.

I know they need to bring in young fans but this is cheesy. They can try actually supporting little leagues which are struggling. Kids won't care about baseball if they can't play the game. The league can do a lot to grow the game instead of these cheap promotions to sell jerseys

  - But I don't get bothered by guys spiking the ball or jumping into the stands. The fans love it! - Krusty Aug 9, 13:59
  - I kinda love that CC was one of the players that was instrumental in creating Players Weekend. nm -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Aug 9, 13:57
