Topps, in an effort to get ahead of the game, decided to include Cliff Lee in their Opening Day series as a Mariner. After some harmless photoshopping they came up with a pretty good representation of what Clifton will look like in a Mariners uni. Only one problem, are the Mariners honoring HK this year with a patch identical to the one The Fightins wore last year? I think it’s time again to hop in my roflcopter and do a barrellawl.

General
at least someone’s wearing the patch for 2010.
They took the time to lovingly photoshop every other part of his uniform but forgot an insignia right on the chest? Either their artists are idiots or Phillies fans. (Possibly both.)
MISS U CLIFF.
card fail.
That’s brilliant
Kudos to kraeer for not posting “FIRSTIESZ LAWL!”
It is mildly amusing as there is no longer any effort taken into making things accurate and actually putting WORK into your work, even if you make baseball cards.
Honoring Harry is everyone’s duty and maybe it is Cliff’s way of staying a part of the Fightins organization.
Ah, Seattle, just a class organization.
I like it. I think it should stay.

Gotta admire Cliffy for wearing those bright blue shoes too. Somehow I doubt he will be sporting those this year.
Hey Topps, is that ‘shopped?
this should be league-wide
That thing he wore around his neck is apparently now bright blue, as well.
It’s called a Phiten necklace (seriously) and it’s some holistic bullshit that players think keep them healthy or something
its made of titanium for blood flow and all that stuff. like those trion-z bracelets.
clearly the nerd doing this wasn’t bright enough to realize the patch isn’t part of the standard MLB uniform.
this is now a historic card, i want one. RIP HK

boom
way to dig up the original cliff lee phillies card ryan … classic
might have to get both and put them side by side
i gotta post this up on our west coast blog for all the mariner fans to recognize
fuckin’ spongetech.
I sewed on the patch my own damn self.
Anyone else notice that Cliff’s throwing that pitch into the upper deck?
roidger, the speed of his arm is deceiving. the pitch is likely to find its intended target.. knowing Cliff.
