Jon Gray Hair Hat

Sadly, there are no pictures of this prized item on the Colorado promotional schedule Web site. That’s a true shame because we’d love to see what this looks like.

Despite the lack of a photo, we’re still pretty pumped to see fans walking around Coors Field with those flowing locks of hair. Just look at the picture above. That adds an instant upgrade to your cool factor if you have hair doing that when you throw a wicked slider like Gray does. Your slider may not break like Gray’s, but at least you can do a slow motion video of yourself with the hair flowing as you turn your head. We can just see it now.

It will be an interesting and unique tribute to Colorado’s 25-year-old right-hander who went 10-10 last season with a 4.61 ERA in 29 starts. Heading into 2017, he will be in the running to be the team’s Opening Day starter. He’ll also be competing with Jeff Hoffman for the team’s best hair.

We’re guessing plenty of folks will want to have this little beauty in their collection. Plan accordingly.
