Hey Detroit area dopers, I need some help. I need a Placido Polanco tshirt before April 1st. We are going to the Toronto Blue Jays home opener and game the next day against the Tigers. I know I left this last minute, but that’s where you guys come in. Would someone be able to find me a 2xl shirt, either like this one: [http://www.detroitathletic.com/catalog/Polanco14T\_thumb.jpg](http://www.detroitathletic.com/catalog/Polanco14T_thumb.jpg) or, this one: [![](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414DdKinUhL._SL160_AA160_.jpg) ](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414DdKinUhL._SL160_AA160_.jpg) and send it to me by April 1st?? All reimbursements would be through Paypal as I don’t have a c/c. I would really appreciate someone’s help in this. There is an additional Souvenier to whomever helps me out. Thanks, Krista ---

Does it have to be blue? Can it be the orange or white one? ---

Nope, doesn’t have to be blue. I’d prefer the blue or the white, but orange would work too. ---

I saw a Palanco jersey at a store the other day but didnt look closely at it. I will be over there again on Friday or Sunday and can let you know by Tuesday if it matches the one you posted(the actual jersey) It was Orange. ---

I haven’t been out of the house in a week (well, save for a couple of ventures). I’m going out and about this weekend. I’ll keep my eyes peeled. ---

Thanks **Mad.** **Least** - That’s okay, it wouldn’t get here by April 1st anyway. I found a Tigers ballcap in my size on the weekend. I think I’ll just wear my jersey, even though it isn’t Polanco 🙂 ---

Well, when are you going to be here? I assume on the 1st. This can still get done. I didn’t see the shirt when I was at Costco, but I did see the shirt when I was at Meijer. ---

**Least** : Actually, we are going to Toronto next weekend, and the Tigers are playing 4 games in TO and we going to a few games. That’s why I wanted it before we leave on the 3rd. If we were going to be in Detroit, I would have been able to get it myself. I would think that even if you mailed it tomorrow or Monday, it wouldn’t be here before we leave. ---

Lo siento, senora.
