ANGELCAT-IDA61 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I already heard rumors about the Padres, Toronto Blue Jays, and the Athletics getting a new alternate jersey for next season. I wonder if anyone has any speculations or heard anymore rumors of mlb teams making modifications to their uniforms for 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the Blue Jays adding some...err...BLUE to their set. I'd keep their road grays.Do you think we could also reach a consensus among the AL teams to limit the powder blue and one in the NL to limit the red?Rays, Jays and Royals all employ a light powder-like color. All are good in their own way. I think the Jays' jersey is nice, but dated. The Royals belong in ROYAL blue, no? I'd let the Rays keep it. It's actually a part of their color scheme.Not much you can do in the NL since the Reds and Cardinals need red in their set. However, can we give the Astros their own unique gold identity. How about basing a set on gun-metal grey (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gunmetal-grey), little black, gold? How about a true brick red for the D-backs? It would make sense for that market (Coyotes are a brick red). Brick and maroon, to my knowledge, are not really used in MLB. Why not? I realize Phillie red is different than Cardinal red, but how about some variety to let the true originators of red (Cardinals, Reds, Phillies) stand out? Even the nationals would look better as a blue-based team. I think two shades of blue, gray, white and silver (with red accents) would be sharp and logical for them.The AL doesn't seem to have this red epidemic.

Firefly Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 reds need to get rid of the black and drop shadows. I can't see that happening. The drop shadow goes with the logo and that remained untouched during the last redesign (even the ugly block letters in the logo). And the black is here to stay since they sell so many of them. I live in Houston and I constantly see Reds hats with either the black bill/red cap or red bill/ black cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I would have said the Phillies red was brighter. This is also coming from the kid who thought all teams used the same shades of red, navy, and royal blue.The Twins will probably get rid of their throwbacks, although I really like them. They should also get rid of the sleeveless version of the home uniform which I do not recall them wearing once this year. Then, they should introduce a navy road uniform so they can quit wearing the ones that say "Twins" for road games. facebook | @thebugcollector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they last wore it during Interleague play in 2009 vs. the Brewers. I think the Twins should bring back the red alternate as a home alt. The blue one can be used for the road.

A single navy alternate is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 The Angels are definitely getting a 50th anniversary patch for next season. Hopefully they went back to Todd Radom to design it. He did a great job with the Dodgers' 50th a couple years ago -- and a great job designing the current Angels uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
