MLB Logo&Uniform changes


UnclearInitial

Recommended Posts

Saw a highlight of the Mariners Indians, I think the new road uni's for the Tribe look pretty good! The picture here doesn't do it the same justice.

Also, first peek of the Mariners' teal threads..

At first I wasn't a fan of the new Indians roads, but seeing them in action I love them! Especially using the C logo on the batting helmet. I think they need to use the cream jerseys as the primary home, instead of the script white ones. Even the change to the red hat is cool, and it's a good change for the Tribe and red seemed to be really underused in their identity. I know most people don't like the C hats around the country, but in Ohio they have really become iconic, and nowadays I see them more than the wahoo caps.

I think this could be an easy way to fix the inconsistency of the Indians set, but still keeping a mixture of eras...

not much of a change, just reduced the number of outlines on the alternates, got rid of piping and red brim on wahoo hat.

The white or cream outline seems to be a tad unnecessary.

That won't be on the gamers. That's just the way the screen printing is on the giants replicas. Normally I'd never buy a replica because the screen printed numbers really look akward on the Giants homes, but I really wanted the gold lettered jersey and the authentics were close to $300. The authentics will be exactly the same as the normal homes but with the colors on the letters and numbers swapped a little bit and the gold changed to more of a Vegas gold to make it pop a bit more

Here's a better look at the front and the hat they'll wear

That may be the tackiest excuse for a uniform ever to mar a major league field. Gold, seriously...

That Cleveland road uniform is even more gorgeous than I exected it to be when it was revealed. That is a thing of beauty. Love it as much as I love Minnesota's road uniform (love the look of navy outlined in red on a gray jersey like that).

Also, the Giants' gold uniform, and especially the gold cap, is just awesome. I'd actually love to see how that looks on a black uniform (with gold letters, white outline, orange shadow), because that shade of gold on black is perfect (hence why the cap is great).

The Astros finally took the plunge and are wearing COOLBASE versions of the home pinstripes. Saturday and Sunday will prove whether or not they took it the whole way and got the entire home set in CB (all White on Saturday night, Brick on Sunday). They finally took the road set to CB (both the brick and greys, so now they have NO legitimate excuse not to wear the greys all the time now).

Go Astros!

Go Texans!

Go Rockets!

Go Javelinas!

Piping should stay on home and road, just the same type between the two. I still don't think the red hat works and if you're gonna have one Wahoo hat it's gotta be the red billed one.

That Wahoo is 100x worse than the current version... which in and of itself is pretty bad. The PC "debate" (or rather "it doesn't bother me so you're a pvssy if it bothers you!") can go on somewhere else, but IMO we're seeing the phasing out of the logo, which I predict won't be seen on field in 5 years.

I don't like that the Mariners have switched from a white outline around the compass rose to a teal one. Makes it look too small, and it almost disappears next to the wordmark.

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.

They did keep the wahoo hat with the red bill. That didn't go anywhere.

The red indians hat is awful. AWFUL. Softball leagues think it looks cheap. Also, I became instantly annoyed the second I saw highlights this morning and saw the road batting helmet with the block C. So it exists, you have it, but you won't wear the blue hat with the red c with your cream uniforms, you're going to insist on wearing that horrible red hat, and when you do wear the creams then you wear your chief wahoo batting helmet? The solution is simple. Drop the ugly red hat that sticks out like sore thumb, wear what is now the road hat with the cream unis, and when you're at the plate, wear your new road batting helmets.

I don't know what I find more irritating, that the Indians think that red hat is a good idea, or that I have to see douchebags around here wearing it. I honestly can't think of a hat in major league baseball that I've disliked more.

On the plus side, it feels like the Mariners are embracing teal (northwest green, whatever) again where for so long they were pretending that it wasn't one of their colors.

I thought your dad was a Cardinals fan. Why is he wearing a Giants locker room celebration hat? :P

He loves the Cards, but didn't want to step on anybody's toes. He got especially freaked out after what happened in LA last week. He caught a good amount of flak from his family, but I can understand where he was coming from. ^_^

This is from last season, but it's such gold that I still gotta squeeze it in here.

I was being facetious regarding that late 40s hat. I would've thought most anyone would of caught that by my use of the emoticon. I've always found that version of the Tribe logo quite humorous. I could apologize for having a sense of humor, but I won't ... That'd just go over your head too.

and I very much doubt Wahoo will be phased out in 10 years, let alone 5.
