Looks like they could be using the "Canaligator" in the logos.

Definitely going to be the Canaligator. They've had one (or three) as their mascot for a while now.

It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

FIVE hats? Woof. Other than that, pretty well-executed, save for the slightly busy primary.

 

I know the concept of "to look like the parent club, or not to look like the parent club?" has been discussed on this thread, and my take on the Spinners is that it works. When the affiliate in question resides in the same state/region as the parent club (in this case an especially small state in Massachusetts), I think adopting a motif or a large portion of the parent club's identity makes sense due to the fanbase (i.e. navy-and-teal Tacoma Rainiers, Gwinnett Braves, Springfield Cardinals). That doesn't mean it always should be the case--and on the flip side, that's not to say that an affiliate located in another state/region can't adopt a parent club motif--but this is where it works best.

I wonder how the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders' introduction of their "Baby Bombers" alternate logo is sitting with the New Orleans Baby Cakes?

It's been just 2-1/2 months since Brandiose rolled-out the new Baby Cakes identity for New Orleans. You'd think that they'd have tried a bit harder not to ape another client's newly-unveiled identity package when generating the alternative mark for the RailRiders.

This is the problem that I have with the new logo set. Depict the mascot wearing the simplest of the caps - blue with the red L - and call it a day.

 

That new L primary cap is pretty sharp. As for the primary logo, I get why they did it. Lowell is known for it's mills so they wanted to include that in the logo for those ignorant of history and don't understand the Spinners name.
