Re: Gregg Zahn Camo Jersey

Here's a Gregg Zahn camo jersey; first year they went to this style.

Nice Camouflage. . . .

Here's one of my latest additions, 2015 Justin Upton. Too bad he will, more than likely, be traded by the deadline.

Thanks to Russell at Fanatics for helping me out on this one.

Awesome cap! Great usage.

Yes, a lot of us wish and hope the Padres will go back to brown and gold. That's why I like the camos and matching caps; the closest thing to brown that they currently wear (excluding the throwback Wednesdays unis)

A salute to the Throwback Thursday jerseys the Padres have been wearing this year.

1990 Joe Carter. Carter for McGriff? OK . . . . Include Roberto Alomar for Tony Fernandez? Ridiculous!

R.C.:
Great jersey! I agree with your assessment of the 1990 trade. One of the many Padres front office head scratchers over the years... including signing free agents past their prime (look at the history of the Texas Rangers to see the model for how not to do this....), gutting the team at various points, etc.

I like this style (1985-1990), but certainly not as much as the 1980-83 brown, gold, orange, or the brown/gold prior to that. One thing I did not like about this style is that the same design firm that designed the San Francisco Giants designed these, including the logo. The firm used the SF uniform template to do these, and created "type-based" logos instead of image based logos. Side note: this design, started in 1985, ended the unique interlocked "SD" style on the caps in which the D interlocked lower on the S.

Re: The Official SAN DIEGO PADRES GU Thread

The Padres have had a few great closers over the years and i have been fortunate to see all of them starting with Rollie Fingers. The list includes Goose Gossage, Mark Davis, Trevor Hoffman and currently Craig Kimbrel.

Here's another who recently saved his 300th game, Huston Street from 2012.

As I enter the Mesozoic era of my life, maybe that's why Derek Norris made me go "Jurassic".

Here's one from our past . . . . 1973 Johnny Grubb.

You know Alejandro, I might have to pick up one of these 4th of July jerseys. They are unique. Glad you got it for a decent price.
