MLB players not happy with new uniforms.
The recent rollout of new uniforms made by Nike for Major League Baseball has caused quite a stir among players. Many of them are dissatisfied with the new uniforms, claiming that they resemble cheap replicas and are not up to par with previous uniforms. The main issue seems to be with the pants, which players have noticed are see-through.

These new uniforms, manufactured by Fanatics but branded as "performance jerseys" by MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, were first introduced at last year's All-Star Game. While some players have acknowledged that the uniforms are lighter and more comfortable, they are not pleased with the "eggshell color" of the pants which makes them see-through.

"It's disappointing that we're now discussing the uniforms instead of the game," expressed Tony Clark, the Executive Director of the MLB Players' Association. "As we continue to talk to the players, we are uncovering more and more information about the issue."

MLB has claimed that the new Nike Vapor Premier jersey is meant to provide better mobility, moisture management, and fit for players, while also taking sustainability into consideration. The use of high-performance fabric and moisture-wicking Dri-Fit ADV technology is supposed to keep players cool during the games.

However, Clark has stated that the ongoing conversation with players has only confirmed their concerns about the see-through pants. "Every day, we are learning new things that don't quite add up," he said.

Due to the issue with the pants, some teams may have to look for alternative options until a resolution is reached. Clark even mentioned that one player has considered purchasing spare pants from Dick's Sporting Goods.

"The universal concern among players is the pants," Clark stated.

In response to the players' complaints, Nike has released a statement assuring that the quality and performance of their products are of the utmost importance. They are committed to working with MLB, the players, and their manufacturing partner to address the issue with the uniforms.
