Bonus: he saved Topps some time and gave them an idea their newest subset of relic cards.

Really though, almost every time I see Sale's name in a story, it makes him seem like a surly jerk. Pressure/ego getting him maybe?

He makes over $4000 a pitch.
I'd wear a suit of armor as a uniform for that. You could even throw a poisnous snake in there with me.

I lost a lot of respect for this guy after this stunt. His tantrum reminds me of the snowflake college students in our universities who whine and take offense anytime someone offers a thought contrary to their own views. I wonder where Sale's "safe space" will be before he's eligible to return on Thursday?

This story reminds me of something I saw first hand at a Rays throwback game in June 2007.....

The Rays were playing the Dodgers, and the Rays were wearing flannel St. Pete Saints jerseys. I owed one of those game used uniforms, and I can attest those specific Saints jerseys were very boxy and tight in the arms. Anyways, during warm ups for the Game, I saw Scott Kazmir working in the bullpen down the 1st base side and he looked very uncomfortable in the uniform. Kazmir said something to a nearby assistant, the assistant ran into the clubhouse and another individual came out to talk to Kazmir, at this point Kazmir got off the bullpen mound and had words with the assitants. Both assistants tried to make some makeshift adjustments to the jersey, in particular the left arm area. After no avail, one of the assistants took out a scissors started cutting under the left jersey arm area, to make the jersey not as tight and boxy by the arm. Even after the cutting Kazmir looked annoyed and displeased with the uniform he was wearing. The incident didn't escalate into anything larger, but I am sure that uniform was something Kazmir wanted to wear by being the starting pitcher that day.

I agree! Maybe he will hide out in the janitor's closet?
