SilverBullet1929 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Cubs thought that's been on my mind for years... they would look good with red numbers on the home pinstripe jerseys. Not that the blue numbers are bad but them having red numbers on their other two jerseys has always made me think about it being on the homes as well.

The_Admiral Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Red = Cardinals Blue = Cubs They shouldn't have red numbers on grey, either. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one team I would most associate with blue, it would be the Dodgers, and it works for them. But with these two I always think of them as... Red and Blue = Cardinals Blue and Red = Cubs Especially with how much red is on that chest logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than updating their blue alternates and going back to the Ernie Banks’ era “Chicago” script on their road unis, I completely agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better, I don't think there's anything wrong with my team's uniforms and they should stay the same forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you meant me but here goes... I'm definitely not a Cubs fan... and I don't think anything is wrong with their uniforms at all... but my logic with my previous post is as follows: in my entire life I think I can safely assume that I've probably watched the Cubs play in their road and road alternate uniforms more than in their home whites and I've always enjoyed the aesthetics of both of those uniforms, both of which have red numbers. So when I see the back of their home pinstripe uniforms and I see the blue numbers my mind always goes "hmm, I wonder how those numbers would look in red" and I always think they would look pretty darn good. I'll admit this is just something lingering in my own mind and it doesn't mean anything is wrong with the blue numbers on their home uniforms. The thought does bring me to another league wide thought... how many MLB teams have home and road uniforms with different colored numbers? It's probably a low number and that's probably why my mind wants to see the Cubs with one color for both. A quick overview of the home white and road grays for each team tells me it's just the Cubs, Rockies, Indians, and Twins who have different colored numbers on their home and road uniforms.

The Orioles went through a 15 year period where they played around with this (at least for their back numbers), they had orange numbers at home and black numbers on the road during the first half of the 90s, then switched to black numbers at home and orange numbers on the road during the second half of the 90s and early 2000s.

PrimalCookie Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I still wish the 2013 logo with the pennants had become a recurring theme, but this is fine. Navy and gold is a nice color scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.C.D Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 ascetically these logos remind me of a brand new microwave. Metallic, sterile and cold to the touch. Very appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yesterday and today - the Mariners are the designated home team in the series that shifted to San Francisco, but the Giants are wearing home jerseys while the Mariners wear alts and grays. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So often, red and royal don't contrast well enough on players who are moving around. The way it is is much cleaner IMO. 4) Yeah, they probably could stand to get rid of that one.

VandyDelphia Mike Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Besides the one time Rhys Hopkins couldnt get a double-c-flapped red helmet to protect an injury, we have the Phillies breaking protocol of “pinstripes on opening day and in night starts, unless it is powder blue Thursday.” A 6:05p first pitch, and Philadelphia sports cream alternates with blue caps. Could be argued that they broke yesterday on game 2 of a doubleheader, but there is plausible rationale of not wanting to change from game 1 which started at a “day” time of 5:05.
