justscrap Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 According to the mothership, the Dbacks primary logo is 2008-2011. Anyone know anything about Arizona's changes?maybe they will just be called the d-backs instead diamond backs for their primary logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 According to the mothership, the Dbacks primary logo is 2008-2011. Anyone know anything about Arizona's changes?All the current jerseys and scripts are listed as 2008-present, though... Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

Maybe the snake-D gets upgraded to primary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just getting rid of the words at the bottom and/or replacing it with "D-BACKS". Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

Quillz Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Are MLB franchises allowed to use nicknames in their primary logo? I was under the impression that, like the NBA, the official primary logo had to have the full name of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windstorm Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Are MLB franchises allowed to use nicknames in their primary logo? I was under the impression that, like the NBA, the official primary logo had to have the full name of the team.I don't know the rules but I have to assume this is not the case. The Toronto Blue Jays primary just says "Jays". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I wish that was an MLB rule, if it would have prevented the "Jays," but as Windstorm pointed out, it's not an MLB rule. Not to mention the A's, and clubs like Detroit and Boston that don't use any names in their primary logo at all (heck, the Red Sox don't even have any letters in their primary logo).

NDwas Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Just a heads-up for everyone: logos with dates ending in 2011 doesn't necessarily mean that they are going away completely. Teams often shuffle and/or make minor changes to their logos and uniforms, and this year is no exception.There will be five teams with new primary logos in 2012, but 3 of those 5 will be alterations of their current logo. You are now free to continue. Tomorrow's just your future yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine any changes to their logos would be so insignificant as to almost not count as a change (since they're like the Yankees as being one of the "untouchables." I'd assume one of the other changes will be the Padres, since the "primary" listed on the site (the "home plate" logo with word mark) was not their primary in 2011 anyway. The team used the simple blue and white "SD" as their primary in 2011 and probably would continue to do so going forward if the rumors about the team's colors next year are true (ie: simply dropping sand completely).
