Actually doesn't look bad. Wonder if the home Chief cap already phased out. Given that the photo day photos are used by most media outlets (e.g., Twitter, broadcasts, and official MLB publications) for player portraits, it could be Cleveland’s way to phasing out the last few bits of Wahoo’s presence in their media package. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt 3,649 Posted February 22, 2018 Has this been discussed -- did the Marlins make their hat logo smaller? 2018: 2017: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skip88 217 Posted February 22, 2018 Yes of course they did, Jeter just saved 5 cent per cap. 5 X 30 players = uhh, a lot of money saved 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Bolton 598 Posted February 22, 2018 I know it's a "normal" sized logo now, but that just looks...weird, to me. I guess the same can be said about the Tigers hats. I'm sure I'll get used to it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I think it's subtle enough that eventually we'll just forget the change ever happened but I like their larger logo and this one looks like a manufacturing mistake. Like if it's "not" an authentic collection cap. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is. I believe the Indians did this last year too. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The one-color numbers worn at ST look pretty good. For regular uniforms, I think just flat blue, outlined in orange and black (or something similar) would look good. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That'd be interesting. Oh and all of those Diamondbacks dates are all on Thursdays at home. The last Thursday home game they'll more than likely wear one of their current jersey except the road and road alternate with teal trim. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quillz 1,356 Posted February 27, 2018 Sigh... another year, and the Dodgers still won't thicken their jersey numbers. If they insist on using the thinner variant, can they at least bring back the white outline? Maybe for 2019... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I definitely knew that Arizona was doing that with their Thursday Throwbacks and I kind of assumed Miami would do something based off of their anniversary logo. And as a Brewers fan, I shouldve known that. I actually make uniforms for the Out Of The Park computer sim, so I have a full excel list with all uniforms for the new season so I know what to make. If you guys or anyone else wants to take a look at it and maybe point out something I missed or make any informed suggestions on what to add id be very appreciative! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Km2FEx2X8NZNtu1nWvVaKxysJQXf3iBN7jAOY40TyhQ/edit?usp=sharing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forgot to mention, the only Throwbacks on the list that are CONFIRMED are the Diamondbacks, Rays, Phillies, Brewers, and Marlins (currently updating). Ill put all the confirmed throwbacks in bold. And yes, the list is really just a reference for me for what unis to make for the game. Also to be noted, the specialty uniforms I have listed are all unconfirmed (obviously.) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
