2008 MLB BP Caps


Royals Insider

Recommended Posts

Wasn't it said the Pardres are DROPPING the P logo for the BP cap? I don't believe that one is correct at all. As for the others, I am not sure.

Since that rumor has been proven wrong, anybody know where it started?

Someone here said it before... so I was going off that.

If I remember right, the rumor for a while was that the "P" logo is being co-opted by SD-area gangs. Every once in a while, someone would say that the logo was being dropped, and that would garner a response from SD-area residents who said that the "P" was pretty popular all around and a big seller on merchandise there. Once the word came that the Padres were adjusting the cap, everyone took it to mean they were dropping the "P" logo due to its alleged gang affilation (that only existed anecdotally anyway).

Of course, no source was ever given, so it turned into a game of Telephone and somehow the "San Diego P Logo is officially going away" rumor became a talking point.

Go Astros!

Go Texans!

Go Rockets!

Go Javelinas!

It is my humble opinion that the Reds are the best dressed team in any uniform they wear with the addition of this new BP hat.

I'm gonna disagree, but only to the extent that the Reds are among the best-dressed teams in any uniform they wear. Top five all around, easily. Maybe even top three across the board.

Wow. How incredibly underwhelming. Bummed to see teams like the Braves didn't return to their previous BP logos.

I was going to disagree because of those side panels and the black flaps on the cap, but seeing that classics like the Yankees, Tigers, Cardinals, Red Sox, etc. didn't avoid some of those features either, well... maybe not. Still a bit too much black for my tastes, but much better than before.

I was in the New Era Toronto flagship store the other day and they had a chart posted show ALL the new caps the MLB would be wearing this year. I would have snagged a pic of it but my cell phone kind of sucks at taking decent pics. Anyways, it showed essentially everything we have seen up to this point, but had two Rays caps, the all dark blue and the dark blue with the light blue brim. Kind of odd if you ask me. The one thing they didn't have was demos of the new caps, which for some reason were not yet avaliable.

Now that the Royals have returned to using blue shoes and belts their uniforms are perfect.

I can't agree more. One of the best-looking teams in all of baseball.

When I compare their uniforms to my Brewers, my heart breaks just a little bit. I've always felt that the organizations were related in a way, sort of cousins. Unfortunately, mine is the ugly cousin.

Why is it that every spring training the new caps, jerseys, etc still aren't available for purchase for every team? Wouldn't it make more sense, from a marketing standpoint, to make sure this stuff was available by Christmas? If not by Christmas, at least by the start of spring training. You're supposed to capture buyers while they are excited and not give them a chance to forget about the product.

What's not available still? Do you mean online or in stores?

Cause I know if any stores decided to order new hats, they have arrived and are on the shelves by now.

I notice lots still aren't online... but online stores don't rule the world.

The New Era flagship store here in Toronto still had the old Tampa Bay game caps and BP caps on display, along with the old Atlanta bp. Explain that!!! :P

The BP hats arent in nearly as high pf demand as the Authentic Collection hats are. most actual stores dont carry them in stock. and if they do carry them its only during Spring Training and maybe a restock or two after that.

of course this can vary if you are in a city with the actual team.
