Re: Jose Fernandez horrible news

The article did NOT SAY ANYTHING about selling at a later date. I read this as meaning they will continue to sell Fernandez jerseys..ie replica...


Bourne said the league has decided that Fernandez jerseys will still be sold. The league's portion of its royalty will be donated to a yet-to-be-determined charity.

You're correct. I misunderstood what he meant.

I'd disagree. Being honest, I think if my favorite player died suddenly and his final jersey was already in an auction, I'd probably bid on it. Not to resell it, but because it would be a very meaningful piece to have in my collection (I rarely sell anything). Not the same as people listing their items for sale on eBay at high prices (same day he died no less!) or auction houses pulling in Fernandez items for their next catalog.

That said, I think a far better outcome for the family to get this jersey. MLB got it right this time . . .

I have no idea if this message I sent to one of my contact on Sunday evening had anything to do with this subsequent decision, nor do I much care. Just want to post this hear to echo the sentiments of the Marlins and applaud the organization for this thoughtful decision regarding Fernandez's final start jersey. RIP JF16

Well said my friend. I took my wife and kid to the Sep 26 game, and signed the memorial board. Something Im hoping my 6 year old will remember forever. I try to tell her Baseball is more than just a game, and that night (and his legacy) will be remembered forever. Jose played baseball for all the right reasons. RIP #16

Re: Jose Fernandez horrible news

Both the Heat and the Panthers honored Fernandez last week. The Heat players wore pregame shooting shirts with Fernandez's initials and number on them, while the Panthers donned home game jerseys with FERNANDEZ 16 on the back for the pregame skate.
