AndrewG70 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110514&content_id=19061044¬ebook_id=19061052&vkey=notebook_min&c_id=minTwins will wear their 1961 throwback uniforms at home the remainder of the year to honor Harmon Killebrew, who just entered hospice care.Fitting tribute, and I hope this provides the impetus for them to switch to these uniforms (or something similar) permanently. I personally much prefer them to their current home uniforms (never liked that wordmark).Not to take a mile when given an inch, but I think the Twins should ask MLB for special permission to make road versions of the 1961 throwback uniforms to be worn on the road for the remainder of the season. It would be easy to do; the only difference between the home and road uniforms in 1961 was the fabric color/lack of pinstripes.RIP Harmon Killebrew.

FiddySicks Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I really hope the Astros don't return to navy and orange. I actually really like their current set and think they currently have one of the best hats in the league. If they do switch, I hope they would keep the current star logo hat but switch to their previous colors of navy and gold. That set was easily my favorite in all of baseball and it represented a period of moderate success for Houston as well.

I'm expecting a memorial patch on the creams and current roads, but a gray throwback would be awesome.May the great Mr. Killebrew rest in peace. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brick hat would look good with the brick alts as well.Ever since this set came out, I thought that the brick cap was miles ahead of the black cap. I would say that they need to switch to it full-time, but then they'd look like the Diamondbacks.Maybe the Astros do need to change w/ the new owner coming in.

infrared41 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Black and white. Deep space, stars, shuttle imagery. Do it, Houston.Milo's idea is definitely the way the Astros should go. Black and white would be killer. It would be a nod to both the shuttle and the Apollo Saturn V rockets. Maybe throw in some gray to get the Gemini program into the mix as well. Add a little red trim for Mercury and we're good to go. The Astros are after all named after the space program. Maybe it's time they start looking the part. This is all they need to get started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 That's a fine idea and all but they'd basically look like the White Sox with a touch of red. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
