Free Carlos Ruiz!

I've had four comments already to my post about the absence of Carlos Ruiz t-shirts and Carlos Ruiz jerseys from any Philadelphia-area sporting good stores or at Citizens Bank Park.

Write your congressman, write your local newspaper, write the Phillies! Let them know that they need to remedy this injustice. There are plenty of wannabe Chase Utleys, Ryan Howards, Jimmy Rollins, Cole Hamels and Cliff Lees out there. And there are even some J.A. Happs, Shane Victorinos, Jayson Werths, Jamie Moyers, Brad Lidges and someone even spotted an Antonio Bastardo of all people.

But where is Carlos Ruiz?

C'mon, Phillies, we all want to know! Free up Carlos Ruiz shirts and jerseys! Urge people to take the "Chooch" train to the World Series, but, gosh darn it, produce Ruiz t-shirts and now!

An admiring public wants to wear them.

Do you know why the Phillies don't sell other Ruiz t-shirts? This is a nice shirt, but is there something preventing the Phillies from selling others?
