I didn't start paying attention to the Twins really until target field opened when I was 9, so I don't have the nostalgia for the m logo like a lot of people do. Honestly, I kinda like the new one more than the old one, even if that makes me a heretic. I was lukewarm on it to start, too, but now I love it. In fact, I'm wearing that hat right now as I type. I live in the St. Louis region, but from Minnesota, and made it back home last weekend to see a game at Target Field. They've really pushed that mark everywhere, including on stadium seats and on the plastic helmets used as a nacho delivery system. (I bought those, too. ) I've come to love everything about the new look. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the eye wounds from Baltimore's snoozefest heal? Are you ready for them to start bleeding again, this time because what you're seeing is ghastly instead of boring? Then by all means, bring on the Pirates' Cash Grab Connects! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mariners also had different socks, as the final version didn't have the S+Trident logo from the original leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoughRiders99 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I always love looking at MLB team logos, especially on this website. But I was wondering if I could find the official team branding style guide (any team) anywhere so I can read through it? Or even just a one big chart of their logos and when certain logos can be used or not. Like this for the Big 12 - http://ncdadodgeball.com/media/teams/resources/Big12StyleGuide.pdf I think it used to be accessible on pressbox.mlb.com but now one needs to log in for that kind of info.

I also still wish they had the balls to switch to purple and gold, but I realize it's an unpopular opinion. 1 POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be curious to see a matching "Minnesota" script, but I dig the arched away wordmark. I agreed with your sentiment about the Twin Cities alternate when it was unveiled, but the combination of just cream & navy has really grown on me. 3 hours ago, Lights Out said: I also still wish they had the balls to switch to purple and gold, but I realize it's an unpopular opinion. I wouldn't have hated this before the redesign, as I was open to them doing pretty much anything to improve their look. Now, I don't think it would work so well within this uniform set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of official media partners and producers of official merchandise, there's nothing in the style guides that anyone else NEEDS. Many of us here would love the information, but that doesn't change a thing. 2 It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
