Let's start the ALW with the Anaheim Angels!

 

Let's admit it, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim doesn't sound quite right... That's why I decided to go just for "Anaheim Angels".

First of all, I wanted to bring back the look used from 1961 to 1996, giving more importance to the Navy colour. I decided to keep the current wordmarks and logos adding the "Anaheim" script for the road designs and the1970/85 California State logo as sleeve patch, and using, of course, the yellow halo. Also, I added a Navy road alt.

Is the first letter A in each version larger than the rest of the letters and is that the case on current uniforms, as well?

Yep, the first A is larger, as in the current wordmarks: http://www.sportslogos.net/logos/view/jc69i93rlxeidoomxfhsnaqdy/Los_Angeles_Angels_of_Anaheim/2012/Wordmark_Logo I like how it looks, that's why I kept it.

Looking forward to the 'Stros!

 

Let's bring 'em on!

 

I think the Astros have one of the best colour schemes on the Majors, but their current identity is a bit bland. That's why I decided to introduce a orange gradient (inspired by the Tequila Sunrise of course) to the current wordmarks and sleeve patch, replacing the current star with the H for the 2000/12 star. I decided to keep the gradient subtle on the home, road and home alt; this subtle gradient would be embossed, something like the pinstripes from this kit; while going for full colour on the road alt. Also, for the home alt, I decided to use a "Moonrise" gradient instead of the Sunrise for the home alt, in order to make it stand out more.

THAT is terrific! Really cool use of a gradient as a subtle callback rather than a full out shock to the system. Also I love the straight horrizontal letters. A couple of questions: Is the sunrise pattern different on the wordmarks, piping, and cap logo or are they all the same? Why does the logo have a square end at the upper left corner?

Also, any reason you didn't make the sleeve patch navy on the home alt? I feel it would disappear on the sleeve being the same color as the rest of the jersey. 

 

Because the Moonrise gradient doesn't look fine on Navy ;)

Thank you! The gradient is always the same. About the star, in order to match its shape on the scripts, I decided to make its left end squared.

What if you used one of the old lettering styles for the home jersey?  And please, some form of the classic H-star, not the "murdered starfish"

 

I think other than the current scripts would look too complex with the new gradient. About the star, I've already tried the current star design with the gradient: http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/109179-houston-astros-tequila-sunrise-hangover/ and I wanted to try something different.

 

Suggested by @Paul Lucas, here's a subtle version of the road alt:

Before starting with the A's, I'd like to settle which colours I'll be using for the Mariners. These are the options:

 

5919d74c3d3a0_MarinersColourTest1.png.0687b335863f8f4de1b5bd9c0b11016a.png 1. Dark Teal / Mint scheme, proposed by @SFGiants58 

5919d74cf1610_MarinersColourTest2.png.668469ff72825c18a8d6015d5e34b5c7.png 2. Seahwaks scheme

5919d74da1a78_MarinersColourTest3.png.47a2e77c7a1b21428facf8f4a740b056.png 3. Cascadia Scheme

5919d9278c703_MarinersColourTest4.png.2c0050ba21c3ebe21bc34c1a97abecfa.png 4. Seattle flag scheme, proposed by @Paul Lucas

Ahh, yes, I see.  What about doing a full-body moonrise on the orange alternates?
