FanGraphs T-Shirts for Sale!
Last year during our very first FanGraphs Event, we gave out FanGraphs t-shirts to everyone who attended and up until this day, those were the only FanGraphs t-shirts that were let loose into the world! Turns out we had some left over, and now we’re selling them for $19.99 each, which includes shipping and handling.
For you t-shirt aficionados, they are Fruit of the Loom brand, 100% cotton, and actually fit quite nice. They come in navy blue, and white. The supply of these is fairly limited, and some of the white ones are out of stock. If there’s demand, maybe we’ll make another batch.
They’re on sale now!
David Appelman is the creator of FanGraphs.
Any plans on making a hoodie or track jacket style? I would prefer either one of those over the T-shirt, but mere fact that you’re making these now is awesome.
Based on the sizes that have sold out so far, FanGraph readers are fatty’s
What was is that Tony Reali said about FanGraphs? I somehow feel this t-shirt would only enhance that. Being married though I wouldn’t have to worry about that… I’m already dateless with little hope of getting past 2nd base. Sign me up!
Can I get one with a “no RBIs” symbol underneath the logo?
I want one that says “#6org”
Could we get a shirt that says “We’re going dateless”
Isn’t that what it says? 🙂 #proudbaseballdork
#6org shirts are a must.
I mean. Shouldn’t you guys be paying us to wear your advertisements?
lol
I’d like to preorder a NotGraphs shirt since “you’re out” of the white.
Yes. In addition to “We’re all gonna go dateless” shits, we need Notgraphs shirts, complete with The Great Ejector logo, and then we need to have a Notgraphs chat where we all promise to wear our Notgraphs t-shirts and then, then gentlemen and gentleladies, we will have won.
I want one with a big smiling picture of Bill James on the front.
And Joe Morgan on the back with a big red X over his face.
Try to purchase one, y’all apparently don’t accept my credit card. Alas.
i want a medium 🙁
I would 100% purchase a tank top version, gotta rep the gun show.
wbhat paymebnt options are available?? reason i ask is i have a birthday coming up soon..would make a great gift…
What is the value of this t-shirt over a replacement level shirt in my closet?
is this the most pluses a comment has ever had?
And yeah…shirts that said “Fangraphs; We go dateless” Would sell out in a day.
I would go with “Fangraphs; where we prefer data over dates”.
“Hey baby, you wanna go out sometime? I’m what you call a Three Outcomes Playa. Ya see, we go for a walk, and maybe I’ll hit a homer or two later, but at some point I’m gonna strike out and you’ll be mad you gave me that 5 year deal.”
“Fangraphs; We like hotpockets”
Fangraphs T-shirts? Yes. Fangraphs T-shirts that only have the logo? No. And I understand you’re just moving your good product and why not, but you might have an opportunity here to make some good T-shirts with catchy phrases. Certainly some good suggestions given so far.
I agree with this. Plus these would look really great on a black t-shirt as the logo would really stand out…
More options down the road would be nice, but the basic logo keeps it classy…
I want one with Charlie Sheen’s life Win Probability graph
Too boring. Charlie Sheen’s win probability would just show a straight line at 100%. Britney Spears’ graph would be crazier than Game 4 of the 1993 World Series.
This is awesome. And why did this take so long?
Lame.
They should be given away. Squeezing every penny out of your readers is pretty pathetic.
What’s next? Fangraphs mudflaps? Fangraphs coffee cups? Fangraphs coffins?
yeah because fangraphs is all about taking our money. That’s why all their work and numbers are behind the paywall.
Every penny? Did I somehow miss the registration fee? It’s been free for me so far?
theres this thing called sarcasm… its kinda new so no biggie
I will be selling my own line of cookware on the site very soon. You can buy a frying pan with my face on it!
Is your face on the top, where you’ll get egg on it, or on the bottom, where it’ll get burned?
Hey Chris make sure you have professionals review that cookware

Cwikware?
@Matt: Good point. I may need to rethink my entire business model.
@Mr. wOBAto: That’s awesome. I can’t believe he’s written reviews on Amazon.
@t ball: Cwikware works pretty well. Hopefully, I won’t have to pay you any royalties.
Don’t like them, don’t buy them.
I’m going dateless tonight!
Also, yes I know I was not first in this comment.
Put this on Zazzle so I can get it on an American Apparel t-shirt. Kthxbye.
Weird, I always imagined they would be green. Can I get a green one?
$19.99 is a rip for a shirt that simple. Should be more like $10.
Simple shirts are the best looking ones. I’ll take this anyday over a shirt covered in dragons or skulls or whatever.
What about wolves? Wolves are pretty sweet. A fangraphs wolf t-shirt would definitely be a hit with the ladies.
FanGraphs wolf tshirt? Hellz yes.
Make your own
seeing how fangraphs makes the bulk of their money on ads, i’d assume that these could go for almost free to get free advertising. i think they should add better shirts than just a plain logo though, they are pretty boring. maybe funny shirts like the charlie sheen win percentage idea or shirts with a team logo and colors to wear to the ball games.
Ah, but these are the original FanGraphs shirts. You pay extra for the originality.
I was expecting some sort of statistic for how Chris Sale does when he wears a T-Shirt underneath.
I leave dissapointed
I love how some of you are requesting these shirts should be free, because its free advertising. Well if you never leave your house, how is someone going to see the t-shirt other than yourself? Charge away boys, these are great. Next time, make them in green with just the logo (no need for a slogan)
I wonder if they get this worked up when shopping for Nike or Adidas products.
sign me up for 2, great product
Awesome shirts. Wish you had a Tall version :(. If this fits like most T-shirts do, the XL will be too short and the XXL will be too wide.
This is America, dammit. Eat more!
Welcome to my life at 6’5″ & sub-200 lbs. American Apparel t-shirts are the best.
I would definitely add a few more words to it, for instance your brand’s line tag or something like that. It would be more interesting and it is better for your brand promotion.
It clearly said the shirts were already made for a FanGraphs event, changes clearly aren’t an option.
Clearly.
I have a feeling wearing that shirt might decrease my xSEX.
But is it available for Android?
Got 2 as well, would kill for a black long sleeve…
Fangraphs: Not Selling Jeans. Yet.
You guys do know you don’t have to wear the shirt in public?
I’d wear that to the ballpark. Gotta spread the good word!
“What Would Bill James Do?”
What’s the use in buying one?
We’ll never be able to fill our tees up with blubbery-smugness quite like JoePawl:

You can set up a Fangraphs site at cafepress for next to nothing, and then folks can order all sorts of shirts, hoodies, etc. 9in all different cuts, sizes and colors) right from that site.
I’m going to buy one with my WAR printed on the back.
Putting your WAR up aint gonna get you laid Chone.
I don’t think Fangraphs realizes how willing I am to give them money.
This is only the third time they’ve allowed me the opportunity to give them money after the 2nd Opinion and the phone app. cryin shame.
i’d buy one, but i want women to like me
Can you make a fangraphs cape next please. Would be quite dashing.
Why pay pal? I don’t do pay pal. I do have a credit card
PLZZZZ GET MORE T-SHIRTS I MUST HAVE ONE
I’m sorry to say I’m disappointed in both the quality of the t-shirt material AND the quality of the graphic printed on it. The t-shirt, while a well-known brand, is made of a grade of material that is not very stretchy. If you pull on it, it does not elastically pull back into place, leaving a very disheveled and frumpy look. The graphic is thin and not crisp. I think that I’d be satisfied if the price was $9.99, but at $19.99, the quality is poor. Big frowny…especially after my roto rivals made such flattering comments like, “GEEKTASTIC!”…bummer 🙁
Can’t wait for the ‘bacon neck’ to start. I hope the Fangraphs douchbag executive that chose this low quality alternative is enjoying his new Porsche while those of us duped by his chicanery wallow in this inferior t-shirt.
Dude it’s just a t-shirt, relax. Do you really think people are getting rich off Fangraphs?
Just a t-shirt? This is America, pal, and the t-shirt is like the blue jean…I suppose you wear plainpockets from Sears?
How can there not be black??? And when are the sold out sizes coming back?
fantastic points altogether, you just gained a new reader. What would you suggest about your post that you made some days ago? Any positive?
it should be on a shirt like this http://jomkedaionline.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/baseball-tshirt.jpg
I want a White in Small…but they have been Sold Out forever. what gives?
I’d like one. Love your web page
Sell ’em for cheaper, please. Seems a bit hefty for free advertising.
