Ramirez will have his own individual print ads, and appears in a group shot with Joe Torre, Dave Roberts, and Albert Pujols for the department store’s Father’s Day campaign.

Sports Business Journal has a preview of the ad campaign and we’re pretty pleased with it. Manny’s pants appear to be a bit too large for him, just like how he prefers to wear them on the field.
