It’s pretty fresh dealings, but the Orioles were nearly moved to Nashville via a lawsuit between feuding brothers within ownership- https://www.nashvillepost.com/sports/baseball/lawsuit-mlbs-orioles-could-move-to-tennessee/article_eb34f27c-e8e9-11ec-ae91-9bce13aa35e9.html The Rays were also “loosely” looked at for a Music City move https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/2021/05/29/tampa-bay-rays-considering-nashville-relocation-mlb-franchise/5265219001/

The Cardinals would likely become the Orioles upon a move to Baltimore I could see the Indians adopting the Rangers name in Houston The Yankees in New Jersey is iffy. They could keep it and just do a NJ interlocking. Or do something cool like Devils or even Swamp Dragons. Yankees make a smooth transition to Cajuns in New Orleans Phillies in NY wouldn’t work. Would they become the Mets? Pirates name with Mets colors could work.

A color scheme similar to Tulane would probably work best and be closer to the Marlins original colors

The Indianapolis Indians have a “Circle City” jersey that could probably fit in the Arrows set as a pseudo-Twin Cities inspired jersey from the current Minnesota set

I don’t believe I did. Are they located on the stadium side of the bridge/highway or the other side?

Since X wants to be a nuisance to everybody and not allow embedded posts, Ravens DB Marlon Humphrey wants the gold pants back for Baltimore https://x.com/marlon_humphrey/status/1693630810014855186?s=46&t=0jXPYtvS0Gmu8zJyrKx0hA

I’m on mobile and tried both methods of embedding with no luck.

• I think the grey jersey would benefit from a flat script in blue and red front numbers (much like the current Twins away uniform) • The red jersey is absolutely perfect • For the pinstripe white, I think “INDY” is a tad bit too short/tall/condensed

Took a day trip to Philly today. Sweet use of solar panels at Lincoln Financial Field. That’s it.

Wonderful work! I’d be curious to see an “Indianapolis” or “Indy” script on the away jersey. As well as incorporating the relocation teams into the Arrows identity. For example, using the Arrows “A” in an “A’s” jersey logo, or an interlocking I and C (Indy is nicknamed the “crossroads of America”), or a pinstriped white jersey.

Wonderful job on Kansas City! Love the colors! Seems like a perfect timeline segway into a New Orleans Royals (Expos) set

Jadeveon Clowney, a known Defensive End, is wearing 24 for the Ravens

Weren’t gold pants a thing that was supposedly happening with this set? Or is it more of an Atlanta red pants situation?

How hard is it to just do a “C” with the shape of the state you play in? Jeez.

Apparently “Mariners” was the name of choice for the team’s conception, but it was changed to Tides because some newspaper editor schmuck thought it sounded better. https://www.milb.com/norfolk/ballpark/history Something to consider if you move forward with it. Obviously this potential move would’ve happened well after Seattle’s reintroduction so maybe in this timeline the Pilots never left. However there are Marlins in the Chesapeake Bay. Hell, one was caught by some famous basketball player. So basically I just info dumped for nothing lol

Honestly you could probably get around speculating by just going with the Norfolk Tides. Similar to using Bisons in Buffalo. Would be neat to see the Tides in current Marlins colors.

Since a lot of people associate uniforms with players that wore them, would this be considered the “Kerrigan Era Set”?

Man, it feels good to be an Orioles fan. Even if they dish out mild heart attacks every game between the innings 7-9.

Lions QB Teddy Bridgewater said in an interview he’ll wear 50 during the preseason

Full script- I really hope these folks were reimbursed. Also, there’s not much sauce to this pasta, but apparently Angotti wasn’t the only one vying for the Twins in ‘84. Donald Trump offered the most money, but lost presumably to his noncommittal to keeping the team in the Minnesota. The former also sent a letter to Cleveland with the intention of bidding for them a year prior in 1983. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/donald-trump-had-the-top-bid-on-the-minnesota-twins-in-1984-but-lost/amp/ There’s honestly nothing definitive in the article or any I’ve searched that says the Twins or (now)Guardians would’ve been moved to New York or New Jersey, but it would’ve been likely. EDIT: Found an article that states “many believe” Trump would’ve moved the (now)Guardians to Tampa https://www.cleveland.com/opinion/2015/10/donald_trumps_bid_for_the_clev.html

Not sure where to put this, but uhh… former OL Michael Oher and inspiration for the Blind Side film is claiming the Tuhoys never adopted him and simply tricked him into signing a document that made them his conservators and getting all the money https://x.com/espn/status/1691128231229902857?s=46&t=0jXPYtvS0Gmu8zJyrKx0hA

I posted an article about it on the previous page. Here’s another article confirming the A’s as a target in 1985 as well as a failed attempt to purchase and relocate the Twins in 1984- https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/2019/03/07/art-angotti-man-who-almost-brought-major-league-baseball-indy-dies-indianapolis-arrows/3094766002/ There is even a glimpse at the Arrows intended uniforms. It’s strange because they give off major Braves vibes IMO

Beautiful work as always!

Oh man, these are sweet. One question I have is why on earth are these teams only unveiling their dark jerseys and not the white jerseys with it?
