NormMacdonald 719 Posted July 23, 2020 Anniversary patch on the right sleeve and right side of the cap. I don't get why they need it on both 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simtek34 1,673 Posted July 23, 2020 The Twins have been using a Wordmark all over their Social Media pages and TV Commercials for about a year now, which appears to be an updated version of the 1961-1986 Wordmark. Reminds me a lot of @SFGiants58's concept. (In fact, the Twins actually used one of his Twins scripts last year!) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NormMacdonald 719 Posted July 23, 2020 @simtek34 I hope they make that wordmark full time. A modern version of our original uniforms would be awesome. Hopefully with a brand new Minnesota script for the road 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully with a brand new Minnesota script for the road I really like it! They've improved upon my work somewhat. That "s" and the various links between the letters look better. Here's hoping they've got a matching "Minnesota" script in the works to finally make the best of their identity. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NicDB 2,970 Posted July 23, 2020 Not sure if its been noticed yet, but the Brewers have been pairing their navy tops with the solid navy caps. They also seem to be presenting this as their default road uniform. They wore blue on the road about as often as they wore their regular road grays over the past two (playoff) seasons. Perhaps they see this part of their identity now? I must say, the blue top is growing on me. I didn't think I'd be saying that. But the numbers are definitely the best part of this new set. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just think they're wearing the blue jersey because of the spring training catch up games. The rest of the league seems to be the same way right now. I'm sure once the season starts we'll see the gray uniform. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ManillaToad 1,176 Posted July 23, 2020 The swoosh ruins the cohesion of every single uniform in the majors. It (intentionally) sticks out like a sore thumb and draws attention away from the rest of the jersey. MLB had perhaps the most aesthetic uniforms in sports, and they decided an incremental boost in merch sales was worth more than that. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hate that cap logo treatment but Minnesota has made it broadly acceptable in baseball, so they might as well. I just don't know what DC logo fits with their current identity. I will say that I've been surprised that the red curly-W hat became so ubiquitous off the field for a newbie team, but I'll also say that I feel like it's all from people who moved there to work on Capitol Hill a lot more than locals. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not my favorite but it would sure beat the stars and stripes garbage from last year. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anecdote isn't the plural of data, but I know several people who live/have lived in Washington, DC, and most of them use the two more or less interchangeably to describe the place where they live. They certainly don't restrict one of them to describe just the federal government. In fairness, I do know one Washingtonian who insists on only ever using "DC". But he's also the guy from Northern California who insists on using "Ess-Eff" for the City by the Bay, so go figure. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
