At least they're honest


Major League Baseball has unveiled a new line of batting practice caps this year.

Paul Lukas at ESPN asked Todd Sokolowski, an executive at cap manufacturer New Era why players need a separate cap for spring training and pregame workouts.

Sokolowski's response:

"Truthfully, it's an opportunity for fans to buy additional caps. So the reason we keep changing the design? Yeah, it's for retail."

Of course, these caps will be obsolete next year when MLB and New Era gives fans another "opportunity..to buy additional caps".

Hey stop shaking your head! Garment workers need something to do, you know!
