- Concern with the memorial "5".... I know someone on this forum won a Rivera team-issued jersey and the 5 looks a little different..

- And... that Rivera jersey has his name under the Russell tag... this one does not..

I think that Mitch is OK on this one.

Jiminez only played in 7 games for the Yankees in 1999, the first of which was on September 15th. As a roster expnasion call-up (who did wear #59 that year), the lack of a name tag and a slightly off-kilter "5" on the sleeve really don't concern me.

Interesting. If you're good with it, so am I. Thanks for the input.

So you'd support a known crook who has ripped off hundreds (thousands?) in our hobby because he has a few legit pieces?

Coaches Corner and Mike Schultz get a few good pieces, too.
