St Louis Cardinals 'won't have blue jerseys until JUNE' as Fanatics MLB kit disaster hits a new low, while Seattle Mariners 'are STILL waiting for their Sunday cream' shirt' - after players said they 'HATE' 2024 season designs

The St. Louis Cardinals and Seattle Mariners got the short end of the stick as Fanatics' MLB jersey disaster hit a new low.

On Thursday, Kyle Corwin reported that the Cardinals will be without their victory blue jerseys until June. Meanwhile, the Mariners are still waiting for their cream jerseys to arrive.

'According to reports, Fanatics cannot ship them until they get them in stock,' Corwin wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

On Sunday, T-Mobile Park's X account shared that the Mariners would wear their white jerseys before a game against the Boston Red Sox. The team's account highlighted the situation after a fan asked about the 'Sunday cream' jerseys.

'They haven’t been delivered yet,' the Mariners wrote. 'But they are still in the rotation. We still plan to wear them this season.'

The waiting period is not the first strike from Fanatics, who are manufacturing the jersey designed by Nike this season. In February, players around MLB criticized them for the subpar quality of their jerseys.

The concerns led MLBPA executive Tony Clark to express the collective frustration in an interview with The Athletic as the union pushed for adjustments.

'Any time there's change, there's an adjustment period. Sometimes that adjustment period goes well, sometimes not so much,' Clark said.

'In this instance, there appear to be some misses that could have otherwise not been misses.'

Angels outfielder Taylor Ward said the jerseys look 'papery' and 'doesn't look like a $450 jersey. Meanwhile, an Orioles player told the Baltimore Banner they 'look like a knockoff jersey from TJ Maxx.'

Another issue was the white pants being 'see-through'. The glaring flaw was flagged after Shohei Ohtani's first photo shoot with the LA Dodgers.

'So whether it’s the league or it’s Nike, everyone is aware of those concerns,' Clark said. 'And (the league and Nike) have suggested in public statements, and otherwise, that they’re engaged with an eye on correcting what can be corrected.'
