Did the All-Star practice/HR Derby jerseys get posted yet?

The screenshots from MLB The Show were spot on.

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

The actual game hats are MUCH better. 

 

But are those regular poly rather than the DE material? That's strange. If so, I REALLY hope they're US made. But, I doubt it :(

I like the HR derby caps too...but really, the only one worth buying would be the Padres, because of how natural it looks.  For example, a Blue Jays cap in that design just looks too forced.

And hats!?

 

HR Derby:

These caps are great for someone with a baseball identity crisis.

 

I miss when players would wear their normal team cap over the special All-Star BP uniform. It was the perfect mix of celebrating the fact that they're an All-Star (and the host location) while representing their team.

I get the argument that these ASG and HR Derby caps make absolutely no sense that teams are wearing their logos in another team's designs and colors but most of these look pretty damn cool in a vacuum. If they're gonna have all this money grabbing merchandising trash that spits in the face of uniform design traditions, at least they're making them look nice.

This league is a goddamn mess. I love a good alternate jersey, and I'm about ready to go back to white at home, gray on the road, and done. This is minor-league absurdism.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

Nice to see the colors but wish they would have used the straight, not arched, type treatment. I know the arched was the version used with the orange but that font just doesn't lend itself to an arch.

It's so annoying. I know they play 162 games, but baseball was fine for decades with two jerseys per team. An occasional alternate was welcome to break up the monotony. But it's gotten stupid and out of hand. One of these days someone is going to accomplish something truly special like a a perfect game or 5 home runs and the footage for all time will show them wearing a stars and stripes hat or Memorial Day camoflauge.

Looks like the Giants (And Angels) had some slight issue with wearing blue lettering on the Fathers Day uniforms. Gee, I wonder why...

And, I guess the Brewers are wearing the throwbacks in the All Star Game?

I prefer the arching for the word "Padres".

But I agree that the words "National" and "American" are too long for this treatment, and that they would look better in a straight horizonal alignment.

And what happened to the "Sedona Red" D snake hat? Did they decide to just ditch that completely?

MLB decides to prevent leaks by letting everything out after two weeks of baseball? I'm cool with that.

 

Honestly, the Mother's/Father's day jersey/caps are unnecessary but look pretty nice. Home Run Derby hats are neat, but I would never buy one. No sense wearing a hat that follows the brand of a different team. The ASG hats look out of place, more like they are leftovers from NFL all gold everything. I do like the stars around the holes, though, that's pretty neat.

Just because you can make a buck on something, doesn't mean they should.  But hey, I don't have to buy or wear any of it.  I just have to look at my favorite team wear it.

Go Astros!

Go Texans!

Go Rockets!

Go Javelinas!
