To keep warm - you actually don't see it as much during the summer months as during the spring. I think it's technically a uniform violation, but there's a bit of a gentleman's agreement among managers not to call each other on it.

It's supposed to take better care of their arm. They often wear it in the dugout too. The comfortable warmth helps prevent cramps that the coldER air could cause.

It helps keep their arm warm and prevents it from tightening up so they won't injure themselves when they go back out on the mound.

To keep their upper bodies warm and loose. If their body temp drops even a few degrees, their muscles and ligaments will start to tighten up which can cause major discomfort, loss of vilocity and control, and can lead to injury.
