Our friends at Deadspin wrote an interesting tidbit about a Carl Pavano hat being auctioned by Yankees Steiner. See beloe
This Time, We Refuse To Believe It's "Used" (http://www.deadspin.com/sports/baseball/this-time-we-refuse-to-believe-its-used-214508.php)
http://www.deadspin.com/assets/resources/2006/11/pavanohat.jpgSo this is entertaining: Official MLB Auctions have discovered a sense of humor.
Currently up for bid on MLB's site: an hat actually worn by famously injured Yankees "pitcher" Carl Pavano (http://auction.mlb.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=76568807&prmenbr=33072944&aunbr=76915517) that was used in, like, a real game. Last year even! Seriously: Carl Pavano wore a hat during a game last year, and it didn't squeeze his skull so much that his headaches made it too difficult to lift his right arm.
We appreciate the cap's seller pointing out that "Pavano wore this hat during at least one live Major League Baseball game durnig (sic) the 2006 season." Because we didn't believe it either.
The hat is currently $100 on the auction, or $39.95 million for four years.
