@FamilyPadres @Madre858 I get that they can go with the surf or the weather or the military but to me the most essential cultural characteristic of this city is its Latin roots.

@Zippy_TMS @Madre858 Don’t think you actually read what I said lmao

Idk who needs to hear this but San Diego is about 17 miles from Mexico. Have you… looked around our city?
Barrio Logan. Chula Vista. National City. Old Town. San Ysidro. Otay. Entire neighborhoods, families, traditions, food, music all woven into the fabric of this place.
The new city connect isn’t ‘catering’ to Mexican culture… It’s literally who San Diego is.
If that bothers you, you’re not mad at baseball jerseys…you’re mad at reality.

@FamilyPadres @Madre858 <-- This white dude grew up with Mexican classmates & friends, eating Mexican food, hearing the Mexican national anthem on the radio twice a day. If you grew up in San Diego, you were immersed in Mexican culture. It's a part of this city to the core.
English

@Madre858 I’m right in the middle of this argument. Looking up statistics on San Diego, our population of the county is 35% Hispanic or Latino. So I get doing the connect jerseys as their culture is by far most influential. HOWEVER, it doesn’t mean every connect jersey has to be.
English

@Madre858 And as a Mexican that lives in one of those communities... Dia de los muertos is not a representation of San Diego.. and that's the reality

@HappyForLife7 @Padres Nah, I'm happily married. But thanks for the offer!

@Zippy_TMS @Padres Can I just skip Grindr and be with you?

@ontheroadAH @roxieflanagan68 The prices for the merch are just crazy. $53 for the hat? yeah I'm good.
English

@Zippy_TMS @roxieflanagan68 I speak for a lot of women when I say we do not like it. This jersey is for the guys imo. Greupner says they want to grow the game to women fans…not with this. I’ve taken a poll -not that anyone cares -but not paying $235 for that pullover. The patch is great though.

@HappyForLife7 @Padres Nothing. You just seem a bit uptight, maybe you need to get laid.

@Padres Typically, in America, English is first, followed by whichever language to which it is desired to be translated.

@Zippy_TMS Woodsy said they’re blue (I asked) and he actually already has one…

@roxieflanagan68 Could you imagine Luke Voit wearing a pullover? I think he'd rip it open.
English

@Zippy_TMS Couldn’t stand the last ones. From the pics I thought these were black (giants ripoff). Knowing that they’re blue already soothes. And I love the pants & hat ❤️🔥❤️🔥. So, tbh, they’re already growing on me. I just do not understand WHY THE PULLOVER? It makes NO sense to me!!
English

@DylanTweetin @BrendanSchlaub Would have been more appropriate to put a swastika patch to commemorate that nazi.
English

@BrendanSchlaub yeah but those are letters. i’m talking image. you could argue the ny rangers statue of liberty uni did it first but i say that’s an inanimate object.

🚨San Diego Padres new City Connect🚨 • Día de los Muertos cultural tribute • Sunset ombré “San Diego” wordmark • La Catrina patch + marigold trim details
English

@TALKINFRIARS @DylanTweetin How would you go about embroidering all that detail in such a small space?
English

@DylanTweetin that patch looks like 💩 from an artist standpoint. The dia de los muertos could have way more detail. Looks like a fanatics typical energy drink style logo



English

@roxieflanagan68 I know your initial reaction to the kit isn't great but I think it'll be a hit. The last one didn't take the fanbase by storm at first but we warmed up to it pretty quick.
English

@shlonger69 @Padres He's 0-for-8 lifetime against Herget, so if there's a day to give him a start off, I guess this is it. Maybe he'll pinch hit vs. a reliever.
