Don Mattingly has relaxed the Marlins' facial hair policy

Don Mattingly, manager of the Miami Marlins and the former owner of a luxurious mustache, instituted a no facial hair policy for Marlins players in 2016. And now, a year later, he’s reversing course. Marlins players are now free to grow mustaches and beards and goatees. Well, mostly free.

Mattingly changes facial hair policy this season. Marlins players can have facial hair, but they must keep it "groomed and professional."

If anyone needs to get a gift for a Marlins player with facial hair, beard grooming kits, electric trimmers, and adorable little mustache combs should be on your list.
