Did the Mariners change?

I saw this on the web. It is a Mariners home jersey with the same style lettering as on the navy alt.

Not unless they changed since Opening Day:

i think they should make the home jersey numbers and nameplate look like the alts....it looks so much better

I would certainly tell someone to think twice before dumping $223 on that.

They should def do that, looks so much better.

I disagree. I really don't like it.

The letters look great, but the same font looks goofy when applied to the numbers.

I've only seen that number/letter style on their navy alternates.

I do like it better, but I can't recall seeing these in action.

the name "plate" on the back of the navy jerseys, though, I think is just too big. I like the block style on the M's Jerseys. I don't think I'd have as huge an issue with it if the letters were straight across the back (football style) instead of arched... I don't know for sure, though.

Maybe I'm a conspiracy theorist, but I think those numbers and letters were used partially because of Bob Melvin when he was the manager. The letters/numbers remind me a lot of the Diamondbacks.

I was just thinking that the other night. Too many teams have the same, simple, generic numbers (Dodgers, Indians, Orioles, Rockies, etc.). I like the numbers on the M's alterantes and they should defineitly put them onto their home and road unis as well.

yes, lets see that custom font standardized for the Mariners.

they are still a realtively young franchse compared to most of baseball, so they can afford to be a little modern with some elements of thier uniform

To the two above, I submit the number of times the M's were discussed in a previous thread about favorite MLB unis.

I know I show up as a homer here a lot... I mean, most everything I do has some Seattle-refence to it (so far), but I really don't think their regular home jerseys need any changing.

I still stand by the Diamondbacks-look alike principle.

It does look like ARI, but the more important questions is why would anyone look at champssports.com for a authentic MLB jersey?
