He’s about to start his 14-year, $500 million extension, so you know that you — or the person you’re giving the gift to — won’t see this shirt go out of style anytime soon. Guerrero jerseys fill Rogers Centre each night and that will only continue to grow as he builds his case for becoming the greatest Blue Jays player of all time in the coming years. But for now, you can’t go wrong with “Guerrero Jr.” and the No. 27 on the back. — Keegan Matheson
The value of Holliday rookie cards could soon be on the rise, as the 22-year-old is a prime candidate for a breakout season in 2026. The former top prospect showed a lot of improvement in ’25 — a significant step up from his tough 60-game debut showing in ’24 — and he could be on an upward trajectory from here. This would be a great gift for a Holliday fan, an Orioles fan, a card collector or somebody who’s all three. — Jake Rill
Maybe it’s nostalgia. Maybe it’s the anticipation of the Rays returning to Tropicana Field in 2026 after a season spent outdoors. Maybe it’s just an appreciation for how far the franchise (and graphic design) has come since the Devil Rays’ first game against the Tigers on March 31, 1998. Whatever it is, this 12-by-16 print of the club’s inaugural Opening Day commemorative program has it. Seems like a fitting gift for any longtime fan looking to display a piece of history. — Adam Berry
With Roman Anthony set to be the star of the next era of Red Sox baseball, fans are going to want to wear merchandise related to him. The team shop is offering red and navy blue T-shirts with his 19 on the back. Pro tip: The red top is particularly sharp. For those who want to spend a little more, authentic Anthony game jerseys are also available. Of all the players on the Red Sox, Anthony merchandise is likely to go the quickest during this holiday season. — Ian Browne
Whether you were there to witness history or just wish you had been, any Yankees fan would be proud to display this collection of framed replica ticket stubs from each of the team’s most recent World Series appearances — 1977, 1978, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2009. The colorful ticket designs inspire nostalgia and would be an eye-catching addition to any home or office. Similar options are also available for the franchise’s early years and mid-century. — Bryan Hoch
It’s cold in Cleveland right now, and baseball season feels far away. But you can stay warm and rock the Guardians all winter long with the oversized City Connect themed blanket, which measures a comfortable 66 inches by 95 inches. And if you’re looking for other ways to rep Cleveland while staying warm the next few months, there are a few sweet winter knit hats available as well. — Tim Stebbins
Bringing home a souvenir from a baseball game is one of the best ways to remember the experience. And if that souvenir happens to be an actual baseball — whether autographed or caught in the stands — you’ll want to both display and preserve it for everyone to see. Here’s a fun case that has your favorite team’s image on the back. This doesn’t have to be for someone who has a ball already, either — gift it with the promise of bringing them to a game this season or down to Spring Training, and bring a ball back for the case! — Anne Rogers
Artist S. Preston created a great collection of minimalist artwork depicting current Major League parks a few years ago, starting a series of baseball collections. This poster depicts the Tigers’ beloved old home park with a simple rendering of the street sign showing the corner of Michigan and Trumbull. It’s a great item for a nostalgic Tigers fan to hang on the wall. — Jason Beck
Have Buck on your desk year-round, whether the Twins are playing or not. This laser-cut figure displays Buxton at the ready, about to uncoil on a pitch. It’s perfect to display in your workspace, fan cave, mantel, or wherever you want to be reminded of the joy of watching Buxton play ball. — Matthew Leach
The 9-8 victory for the White Sox over the Yankees in Dyersville, Iowa, stands as one of the top moments from the last rebuild coming before this current rebuild. Jose Abreu hit the first Major League home run in Iowa, and of course Tim Anderson’s
