New Minnesota Twins jerseys are shockingly expensive
The new jerseys unveiled by the Minnesota Twins last week are for sale in stores and online, but if you think they're priced the same as other jerseys you should dump that thought and prepare to back up the Brinks truck.
At MLBShop.com, the new jerseys are priced at $304.99.
They're $379 if you shop in person at the Twins Clubhouse store at Target Field. And that's for the jerseys without player names on the back.
Was just at the Twins Clubhouse store. Love this jersey. So much.
