The sportslogos.net database actually isn’t much help here, as it shows the 2005-2007 sleeveless home uniform with the ray on the sleeve, but it was definitely worn without it at some point. Like officially? I feel like you could just get sloppy and have some with/some without the sleeve logo. concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to get along great. However irrelevant it is, and being that the devil ray was always on the cap, if Iremember correctly. They in fact did not wear a devil ray on their sleeve at some point in 2007 when going with the vest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official MLB graphics as depicted on Dressed to the Nines don’t show it on the undersleeves for any year. I’m wondering if they just informally stopped putting it on the undersleeves as players started wearing more varied styles of undershirts.

SilverBullet1929 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 The Rays identity is that of rays of sunshine. They only wear the devil ray animal on their sleeve as a nod to their previous identity. They're not trying to be both. We've already gone over this. Are the A's trying to be elephants because they wear an elephant sleeve patch? It's the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet1929 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 The Reno Aces now wear subliminated shoulder patterns like their parent club the Dbacks? When did this happen? This is new for 2018 if I'm not mistaken. (I know this is a minor league team but I thought it pertained more to the DBacks identity trickling down their organization than to the Reno Aces themselves, I could be wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played with the Aces forever in MLB The Show 17 after getting drafted by Arizona, and I always thought they had a great set, but now it's ruined.

Or they could just get rid of that sunburst and be about devil rays again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since their previous identity is a "ray", and their current one is a "ray", it's nothing at all like the A's situation. They literally switched from the fish ray to the sun ray but never dropped the fish patch. I'm honestly not sure why it's hard to see the difference.

I think the red jerseys were a special event, not worn regularly. The white jerseys are new for 2018. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
