Re: cool base is garbage
Braves switched over to all Cool Base. My 2009 Blue is Cool Base, as is my White 2008 and Red 2007.

Re: cool base is garbage
One thing to remember is that there is more than one type of Cool Base material. What's currently being used for the game jerseys is what was used for BPs between 2004-2007. What's currently being used for BPs was previously used for what, soccer jerseys?
And if you want to talk discomfort: ever hefted a 100% NYLON jersey? Nasty...seriously nasty.Mark

Re: cool base is garbage
I have a nylon Expos jersey and it is very heavy for a jersey. I think it's neat though since, they were the only and last team (I believe) to use them at that time (2004).

The majority, if not all, of the Pirates '09 jerseys I saw recently were Cool Base. Jay.

Re: cool base is garbage
For the last couple of years, it was up to the individual player to opt to wear the cool base jerseys. Lately there are teams that are switching to exclusive cool base. I also heard rumor last year that all teams will be making the change in the next years. I'm not really sure if its a money thing, I'd almost expect the cool base to have a higher price to the teams.
We can only hope for a new MLB contract jersey manufacturer when Majestic's current one if up.
