Giancarlo Stanton's final game-used Miami Marlins jersey could be yours ... for a price

What would you pay for Giancarlo Stanton's final Miami Marlins jersey?
It could be yours right now ... for a price.
One of Buzz's newest super-casual hobbies is looking into specific pieces of game-used MLB memorabilia direct from teams with MLB Authentication. It's not a heavy focus just yet -- it's just a result of the ol' personal collection player being a retiree going cardless these days.
Some MLB teams have mailing lists you can join for updates about memorabilia available after games but most do not. Many sell items in team shops and via MLB Auctions (not always as auctions, though). The Miami Marlins are one team that does have a mailing list and there are some gems to be found there on the cheap.
But then there's the Stanton section. (And an Ichiro Suzuki section, too.)
