Here is a future Hall of Famer's Trevor Hoffman 2,000 game issued All Star jersey.
I know it's not game used but, still interesting!!!

Nice . . . I haven't seen, what I believe to be, an authentic "game used" Hoffman jersey on the market. Still on the lookout.

Here's one from that great 1998 Padres team. 1997 Sterling Hitchcock alternate. Sterling was the NLCS MVP going 2-0 with a 0.90 ERA & 14 K's.

First round pick out of Clemson in 2002, Khalil Greene was a popular player as a Padre. Suffered from social anxiety which put him out of the game for good seven years later.

Here's an interesting article about Khalil:

Brian Myrow 2008 San Diego Padres road jersey (special sand color). Not a big fan of the Padres colors since they switched from Brown/Gold and/or Brown/Orange, but I thought the sand colored road unis to be different and set-apart (other than the usual gray).

Nice Spangenberg. Guy can fly around the bases.
Gonna hook me up with an Upton jersey this year??

Thanks. I also have his 1st ML triple ball and his 1st ML at bat ball (ground out) and they are both authenticated saying that information.

I think we can make something work on an Upton. We should start getting some in this month.

Re: The Official SAN DIEGO PADRES GU Thread

Great jersey, R.C. Loved this style in 1976 and 1977 (with the V-neck pullover style) too. I 2nd going back to this style....

Oh yes Jay. Someday.

Re: The Official SAN DIEGO PADRES GU Thread

What a great jersey! And thanks for sharing the memories. Very cool that the jersey helps preserve them for you.

Wish the Pads had stayed with the brown and yellow, which gave them a color scheme unique to MLB. Unless a timeless classic, I don't mind when teams update their uniforms but I think it's a shame when teams change their colors.

Thanks. Whether it's a favorite player, a dynamic player or was a Hot Dog (example to follow someday) most if not all my jerseys have some meaning or memory attached to it.

You are correct about the brown and yellow. Those distinctive colors were associated with the Padres. Much like the green and gold of the Athletics. Someday the brown will return. . . .
