Fictional Baseball League Concepts

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I've been running a fictional baseball series over on the AHSports website, but I figured I could do with some comments from you guys as well. I have 10 teams currently with 2 on the way, so I'll just post them as I go. A couple of things to note: my template is my own, it doesn't have any pants yet, but I will fix that eventually (probably soon, given I'll have plenty of time off) and there won't be any story here. I also won't be linking to the story just because I'm not sure if that's against the rules and I don't want to run that risk. Also, the league starts in 2003 to give just a bit of context, era-wise. Alright, without further ado, enjoy!

This is great but one thing, I feel like Atlanta should have delta colors since it’s their airline.

Thanks! Atlanta uses those colors since they're a holdover from older concepts where they use the Atlanta United color scheme, slightly modified. I didn't want the league to have a RWB team, and I really like how the Jets looks with these colors.

 

Two more teams:

These two joined as expansion siblings, so I purposefully went traditional for Cleveland and very modern for St. Louis.

Some cool looks so far, cool opportunity to use a crescent moon as a “C” for Cleveland.

That's actually really clever! I'll probably give them one of those within a couple in-universe years.

I like the Astronauts idea but I would like the Astronauts font to be the same font as Cleveland. And a half moon for a C logo is a great idea!

 

What's the story behind New York Busters?  That's a negative name in the hip hop community. 

I actually have a version where "Astronauts" is the same font as "Cleveland", but I didn't like how much empty space it left in the cream-colored part of the circle. I went purposefully traditional for the 'Nauts, so the script wordmark helps that.

 

The name "Busters" comes from Theodore Roosevelt, who was from New York and also called the "Trust-buster". Shorten that to "Busters" and you have a unique name taking inspiration from a prominent and loved historical figure.

Ok, I made some changes to the jerseys, but none were huge: I mostly adjusted the ratio of NOB to number. I did make three other edits: I flipped the sleeves logo on Chicago and Philly to actually be correct, and I changed the back numbers on Washington's second alt to be red with white stroke instead of black.

 

C&C Welcome!
