Andrew McCutchen shaved for his new era as a Yankee, and it looks a bit shocking

When Andrew McCutchen was dealt by the Giants to the Yankees Thursday night, it marked the end of an era -- his handful of months in San Francisco, sure, but also a much longer-term one. 
It meant he'd have to shave. The Yankees have that policy mandating players be clean-shaven, after all. It took him a little bit to figure out the rules: 

Neil Walker says Andrew McCutchen sent him a selfie today of his beard and said "is this good enough?" and Neil had to tell him NOPE.

For Cutch, who already shed his dreadlocked look a few years back, this meant shaving off the finely-tuned beard-and-mustache situation he had when he arrived in San Francisco:

Because he's a man of the people, McCutchen made sure to document his new look on a story on his Instagram page and -- well, we hope you're sitting down for this one: 

Whoa.
