Teams are using these patches to honor players, managers, coaches, owners, part owners, announcers and on and on.
They're going to end up looking like NASCAR drivers.
If you honor one person this way, it then becomes a question of where do you end up drawing the line? What's the pecking order? Which person is less important than another?
Baseball uniforms are strictly regulated by MLB to ensure "uniformity" among players of a team. I can also go off as to my issues with the way Fernando Rodney wears his hat (aside from his pathetic on-field schtick). Even King Felix had his hat askew during his start last night.
But I understand there are exceptions which allow the patches and for players to wear their garments differently. That's why I need to secure more votes to replace Bud Selig after this season...
