NEW D'Backs and Reds Changes(pg 4)

The red "db" logo looks like a human heart.  I hope they wear it on the jerseys.

They'll be wearing their "heart" on their sleeve. ^_^

I think the db logo could use some improving, mainly getting rid of the space between the d and b. (Image)

I love the Reds' new Olde Tyme looking font.

19 of the 30 teams will be making some kind of a change to their game attire for next season. Some things, like the Sox and 'Stros dropping their WS and anniversary patch is a given, but there are many other things, some unexpected.

Save the slugalo.

You're right, Tazz... dropping the space between the d and b makes all the difference. I like it better your way.

Excuse me. Now we all know you have something to hide, anything you can give us thats pretty major other than the Reds and D Backs?

I like the new updated d-backs uniforms. I also like the alt *db" in the shape of a shake ( dont know what type of snake lol ) Really reminds me of houston but still great.

The reds are great as well.

The only problem i have is the reds and d-backs numbers look very simular.

I may be in the minority, but I like the Reds' use of black. That being said, the new Reds font makes it seem like they are trying too hard to be old fashioned. It isn't just retro, it looks like they want to be the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings.

I agree. Black works well as an element in the Reds' scheme. As long as it's just minimal, like a highlight/shadow/outline, it works well for Cincinnati (i.e. not what Kansas City and New York have done, although I also like the black in the Mets' scheme as well)

My take on both sets, take it for what it's worth:

D-Backs: I reallly like what they've done here. After seeing it in visual form, I'd have to say that the colors work together, even if they're the Astros colors. The "db" is genius, and fits perfectly as a sleeve logo (and it wouldn't surprise me if it ends up somewhere on their BP unis. The script "D-backs" is original as well, and it's good to see a change.

Reds: What can I say, it's beautiful. It's definitle something deserving of one of the oldest baseball franchises around. The old time road script is great, and the amount of black is miniscule and works well. I mean, come on, sometimes colors need something to complement the primary color.

A few questions/ideas:

- Based on the fact that there are no pinstripes behind the "home" jersey lettering area, is it safe to assume the Reds will use a plain white jersey with some sort of piping?

- For the ones who see a similarity between the Reds and D-backs numbers, I see what you mean, but to an extent.

All in all, I like both of these designs, the only change I would make would be to change the D-backs brick to either a deep, burnt orange to copper shade.

Other than new BP stuff, there is nothing I would consider major. We already know about the names on the Cubs and Dodgers uniforms, a couple teams are getting new red alts, a lot of teams are dropping or adding patches, and the Canadian team is getting a new cap.

Trying to envision the Reds look on a complete uniform--probably won't have to for long with the astute folks on this site whipping out images as we speak...

I love the apparent getting rid of pinstripes--Reds don't need them. Love the old fashioned font on Cincinnati and the numbers/names. Perfect for the original MLB team. Love the updated old Mr. Red logo--never really cared for the one they've been using the past 30 years or so.

Looks like, from Mr. Red, that there won't be much or any stripes/piping--maybe it'll be a clean look.

I don't mind the black as minor shadowing/trim, but I don't like the black alternate cap existing. I fear it'll be used too much. Make it go away. Here's hoping the bill is red on the red cap.

I wish Mr. Red were used as front jersey logo on red alternate instead of just sleeve. He would look fantastic that large.

Overall, this Reds diehard marks a homerun on his scorecard (and not the Adam Dunn type--nobody on, having already struck out three times previously in the game).

Again, I'd love to see a mockup of the new Reds unis, and D'backs as well. Who's going to blow us away first? Wish I had the computer skills.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

If Toronto permanently drops a bomb on the graphite caps, that would be dandy. Hey, how about a BLUE Blue Jays cap? That might be a novel idea.

I'm am really pumped up over the new BP stuff for some reason. Maybe it's because I don't like the underarm gussets on the current style of BP jerseys.

Go Astros!

Go Texans!

Go Rockets!

Go Javelinas!

didn't the Jays can the graphite home cap? All I've seen them wear this season were black, including the Canada Day caps.

Yeah, they've already dumped the graphite cap. Since I doubt they would bring it back, blue is really the only option they have left, and that's a good thing.

new red alts???? This only leaves it open to a few teams:

Definite guesses:

- Cardinals

- Angels

- Phillies

Other guesses (possibly a stretch):

- Indians

- Rangers

- Twins
