MJD7 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Did anyone mention how the Twins wore their white-paneled BP caps in the regular season finale vs. Detroit? I really like this look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean good lord. I hate the practice of outright naming bowls after sponsors (Chick-fil-A Bowl vs. Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl), but I have to say I love the variety in bowl logos and identities. It's better than what Super Bowl logos have become. Also gives us some cool and some hilariously bad bowl trophies. On 10/3/2017 at 11:15 AM, DiePerske said: Hate naming rights. Next stop, team naming rights like the DHL Stormers in South Africa. Give me a jersey plastered with ads before you sell the naming rights to an event, building, or team. Building? That's kind of a fight that's been lost, although it can be fitting like Citi Field or fit the city's identity like Ford Field.

Keep their caps the same, but bring back the Mauer helmet full time. Probably need a blue T, though. (Oops. Forgot to remove that when I switched from a pic of Mauer's actual cap to this.)

It wouldn't need it if that weren't crowding it/breaking it up. Looked terrible for teams like the Twins and White Sox, but showed us how good Cleveland's C looks like with an outline.

Probably as much as we can read into Cleveland's postseason habits last year. Then again, they did wear them constantly this year. I spent the first inning thinking about how maybe we were too harsh on them originally and the Diamondbacks' teal alts were acceptable. Then I saw it close up with its mismatching letters and too-bright teal. It's the start of something, but it's got a bit to go. On the other side, the Rockies' cap is beautiful, but it looks like the uniform has four purples. By the by, noticed this watching last night, but jeez the postseason caps do not read from any distance whatsoever. Nice, classy logo, but at such a small size the gold disappears and it looks like a bandage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an unpopular opinion to say you actually like their set in a vacuum. Again, they're a good foundation, but they fall apart once you look closely.

Bmac Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Word on the street is the Diamondbacks were planning to only wear the teal trimmed uniforms for the playoffs. So far that's true, we'll see if it remains true... https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some rumblings that what ever set of the 2 sets within the identity won out for merch sales that the team would phase the other out. Im pretty sure the teal set has blown the standard sedona red set out of the water in sales. Plus they have a better record with the teal sets. Would not be shocked to see the teal set go full time next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreamSoda Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Ugh.... Astros in bright orange and red sox in blue. Post season baseball should be white v grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63Bulldogs63 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I'm ok with a game two alt matchup especially since both alts are two different shades. First game going standard white /grey, game 2 alts, game 3 should also be standard grey/white. Just don't want to see sox indians in all navy again.

Well they had red towels, so that might be part of the reason. Judging by pics on social media, it looks like a good mix of both, with some wearing old stuff from the previous red uniform. https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/433801/chase-field/ https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/267817712/arizona-diamondbacks-major-league-baseball/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
