Mr. no funny nickname Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I saw the old Boston/Atlanta Braves concept and I wondered which MLB teams could pull it off with their current jerseys. So I put these together. Let me know which ones work and which ones dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacker12 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I think the Pirates and Yankees look best in the cream colored jerseys given the fact both of them have such classic looking uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjezioro225 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I really like those Red Sox jerseys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 The Pirates actually have those jerseys, almost exactly. Roberto Clemente's sell for over $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gueman Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 O's, Astros, Brewers, Pirates,Padres(just a lighter version of what the wear now).I don't think it works well with teams with bright red or bright blue. I also didnt think it would work for the O's untill I saw it. Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P. J.

Jigga Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Baltimore, Boston, Houston (though I hate their unis), and Pittsburgh.

BallWonk Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Nicely done. Seems to me like one of those things only one team per division should do, so that would be:Giants (of course)Cardinals (or Pirates or Astros)BravesOriolesIndians (or Tigers)A'sThrow in one team per division in non-gray road unis and we'd be getting somewhere!

VitaminD Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 They all look OK when shown next to each other and cream becomes the norm.In general, it looks more appropriate on teams that have a longer history and whose uniforms resemble what they wore in the Flannel Uniform Era.But like BallWonk said, there should be some limits on it; part of the reason I like the cream on the Giants' home set is that they're unique. If everyone did this, it would lessen the effect. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfanSSC04 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Very few teams can get away with a creme color. Having said that, here are my picks:OriolesCarmines (Red Sox)YankeesTigersPhilliesPiratesCardinalsD'Backs (and they already wear a creme color)Giants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I thought the cream colored jerseys worked well with these teams:Orioles, Red Sox, Cubs, White Sox, D-Backs, Tigers, Astros, Yankees, Pirates, and Nationals.The cream just seemed to really make these unis look good.

The_Admiral Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 No. Not the Cubs. The cream doesn't go well with the blue pinstripes. Nor White Sox, because you're dealing with black and grey within the color scheme, so you pretty much have to use white. Yankees don't work either. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
