I know this is silly, but does anyone know what Phillips, Lopez, and now even Homer bailey have around their necks? It looks cool and I want one!!! Sorry for the fashion interuption. I'll try to not let it happen again.

I'm pretty sure that they are titanium necklaces from a company called Phiten. They are designed to reduce fatigue and stress. But I haven't ever really paid that much attention to BP or Lopez, but I will look at some pictures to be sure if this is it or not.
That's what they are.
Don't know how or if they actually work, though.
I think they're replacing greenies these days because lots of guys are wearing them.

Weird, I wonder if they do anything.
How much do they cost?

Here's some language taken from the site:
"Micro-sized Titanium balls"

You can also get those from taking titanium steroids

A lot of the players on the Japanese national team also wore them during the World Baseball Classic.

Here's a web site that debunks some of the hype on Phiten

I noticed last night that there were several players wearing them. I had wondered what they were.
"My mission is to be the ray of hope, the guy who stands out there on that beautiful field and owns up to his mistakes and lets people know it's never completely hopeless, no matter how bad it seems at the time. I have a platform and a message, and now I go to bed at night, sober and happy, praying I can be a good messenger." -Josh Hamilton
I really doubt the necklace does much of anything by itself.
However, anything that you think works, likely does to some degree.
