So much for that gruff cartoon figure. 

According to ESPN’s Darren Rovell, Matt Kemp and Cole Hamels will be the new spokesmen for Big League Chew.

Shredded gum brand Big League Chew will debut national packaging that will feature an active athlete — Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp — instead of the cartoon characters that have existed on more than 500 million pouches since Big League Chew first hit shelves 33 years ago. In June, a picture of Kemp will adorn the front of the gum package.

The brand, through a partnership with PLB Sports, a maker of athlete-endorsed food products, also has signed Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels.

 

It's unclear if Hamels will also be a package boy.

  1. I’d rather see him on a can of dip. Not some slack jawed limp writes bubble gum pack.

  2. Cole is a great pitcher but those pictures make him look life a boating doof. Hell of a pitcher, shouldn’t be on big league chew.

  3. I’m too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt….
    As for those pants, not so much.
