When I see the new NWL emblem, I think of "happy little trees".........it's so soothing to look at, from the colors to the symmetry of the landscape....and yet, the roundel, the initials and the baseball solidify the identity that this logo portrays..... a baseball league of the Northwestern US.

I just came back from Daytona Tortugas batting practice this afternoon, where I made a weird discovery. Along with the rest of their uniform set, which consists of green hats, green alts, green scripts and numbers, and green stirrups, their batting helmets are black. They are the THIRD team (that I know of) in Minor League Baseball that uses a predominantly green palette but uses a black helmet. Is there some unwritten/unknown rule in MiLB that forbades green batting helmets from being used? This is going to drive me crazy all season because this look was would be perfect if it wasn't for this one thing.

The Tortugas swinging turtle logo was actually designed by Studio Simon......so, it's really an MiLB-wide design phenomenon

Robbie Aaron of the Tortugas posted this on Twitter today Looks even better in real life!

So, they're not the Pawtucket Red Sox anymore, Now the Pawtucket Pawsox? I guess that's fine, but I have a question that burning my mind.......why are ALL these teams adding light blue jerseys all of a sudden, even when the parent club doesn't have the color in its palette(sp?)? Unrelated note, here's a SWINGING Tartouga!!!!

Here's a better look at BOTH Home and Road Uniforms Same Colors, Same Piping, Same Arching Font, Same Numerals, SAME Cap and (presumably) Helmet.......on BOTH Uniforms Nickname on Home White, City on Road Gray...... These are as perfect a set of baseball uniforms as you can get. 11/10 if possible

I always called us DAYTONIANS, but I guess that was incorrect the whole time LET'S GO 'TUGAS!!! clap clap clapclapclap

You do know that Studio Simon, Brandiose etc do not choose the names right? How embarrassing for me. No I didn't. Now I do

As for Daytona, ANY NAME that's not "DAYTONA SPEED" should be fine with me, and given Studio Simon's past work, I don't think we're going to see a name like that. (fingers crossed)

I'm not dissing Brandiose (everyone knows I'd give anything to be in his spot).......but why is it that we don't hear as much good about Studio Simon as we hear bad about Brandiose? When was the last time Studio Simon did a Minor League team? I can't remember.

I'd bet you my last dollar it won't be "Daytona Reds" Anyway, I will be at the unveiling in person next Thursday.

I love it

Oh man, a missed opportunity to call them the "Sonichus"

That's not an unpopular opinion at all, everyone hates the Jags' helmet. NOT Everyone hates it.........I like the Jags helmet......and yes, that opinion belongs here

I enjoyed tonight's Bucs-Jags uniform matchup JUST BECAUSE others hated it. lol

I wish the Padres would return to the 1984 Uniforms full time (maybe sans the Kroc memorial).......for some reason, I like them a lot; the script, the hats, the numerals, and the fact that it used buttons and belts.

That's the Asheville Tourists

I would prefer an all-black helmet, but I can't do anything about it, so I look on the bright side instead. As for the logo, I LOVE it......it just grew on me over time.

I guess I'm the only one that kinda likes these current Jaguars uniforms better than what they had from '09-'12........but I do, especially the teal numerals. And I can't wait to see the black unis in action soon.

It may seem stupid nowadays, but I miss MLB team logos being on the outfield walls, especially when it was league specific. This year's College World Series at the new Omaha stadium, they had the team logos over the left field wall above the bullpen, and it reminded me of when Major League teams used to do that.

I personally think they would be crazy to take Detroit out of the Western Conference, where Chicago will most likely still be.....that rivalry is just too steeped in tradition to separate....but that's just me.
