Ben Zobrist says players and MLB could agree soon on uniforms

Major League Baseball has recently begun a crackdown on players wearing various colored cleats, arm sleeves, etc., in essence, anything that gives the player a little individuality. Letters were sent to players — yes, actual physical snail-mail letters:

Dear @mlb, I still like you but this is rediculous. For the last two years, I have worn black spikes exclusively at Wrigley Field for Day games to pay homage to the history of our great game, and now I am being told I will be fined and disciplined if I continue to wear them.
