Complete Ryan Madson jersey set for 2012

[MLB~NUT]

This is the first time I think a team has ever auctioned off a complete year player set of jerseys pretty neat if your collector or Ryan Madson!!!

Not bad for a guy that never played for them. And I love how they basically made up jerseys just so they could sell them.

Great day to be a Reds fan. lol

not sure what happened. injury? but he was contractually a Reds last year. So i see these jerseys as more or less standard season preparation by the EM than a manufactured collectible. these were probably made way before they considered having something of his auctioned off for charity.

i agree though probably not something i would consider if i had a reds collection.

this pretty much verifies what we already know about shat is issued to a player at the beginning of a season

- 2 BP, 4 Home, 4 Road, 2 Red Alternate (interesting only 2 alternates, not 4)

You don't believe that they would've already had them made or on order before his injury? I highly doubt these would've been made to make an extra few bucks.

Madson got hurt in February and never threw an official pitch for them

Not for someone that got hurt in February but it wouldn't surprise me.

I find those ceremonial pitching rubbers to be a blatant money grab more than anything.

They make jerseys for all guys healthy or injured in case they come back or sit in the dugout during any games. This is not uncommon.

I am aware of that but it's still pretty crappy
