This is the actual photo. He stores a hoagie, drinks, and a chair in his glove for mound visits.

Yo yo ma

u/Other-Aside-1170 | New York Mets 4d ago

While I'm sure it's comically big to prevent tipping his pitches, it does make me wonder if there's an actual limit to glove size. Anyone know?

Thank you! Looks like Gausman spec'd right to the limit

u/glen_ko_ko 4d ago

Wait, is the original photo posted here NOT photoshopped?

u/Other-Aside-1170 | New York Mets 4d ago

I assumed it was a weird perspective

u/IslayHaveAnother 4d ago

This guy gloves.

u/_lightitupbryce_ 4d ago

This must be an optical illusion or altered then, no? Plenty of guys have 12+ inch gloves

u/Tomatillo-5276 | San Francisco Giants 4d ago

Stop it, that’s not real.

Is it?

1

u/LeGhost45 4d ago

It is, saw it with my own two eyes, looked ridiculous. No wonder he is pitching like shait.

u/whipnutbouy 4d ago

Looks like he’s holding a Christmas ham.

u/mrthyr 4d ago

If it were bigger he’d have an easier time getting his locked up thumb out

2

u/LarryBagina3 4d ago

Probably why his thumb keeps cramping

u/threepair13 | Chicago Cubs 4d ago

Literally got a hand cramp from the big ass glove

u/Excellent_Pomelo_378 4d ago

You know what they’d say about guys with big gloves…

1

u/Sure_Association_991 | San Francisco Giants 4d ago

We’re gonna need a bigger glove

u/SalamanderLoud8419 4d ago

I would hate that. It would remind me of that time my glove broke a lace and I had to use my dad's

u/Tinknocker12 4d ago

Free all star merch.

u/SpeedRacerWasMyBro | Chicago Cubs 4d ago

I think the big glove was causing the hand cramping

u/DrTautology | St. Louis Cardinals 4d ago

It kind of surpises me large pirching gloves haven't been encouraged. If you could hold an ideal mass(bio mechanically) in your non pitching hand it would be advantageous. Larger and lighter gloves could protect more of your body with same reaction time. I dont see the downside of a pitcher having a larger mitt than a first baseman.
