Mongoose Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yuck. But the fact that they're going out there in blue is a good sign for next season being a blue and orange alt (right? right? )I has been stated that the Mets will be using a blue alt on a limited basis next season, so you are in luck, however there were no announcements of an orange jersey.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 PictureMake that black hat into a blue one with an orange brim and I'll have a piece of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinmets Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I loved those blue jerseys when they first came out (2005 IIRC), if they have to use black then that's how to do it. Pair them with the proper hat and you have a winner. (Of course the "Los Mets" jerseys sans "Los" are preferable though.)This is the first time the Mets have worn these in a game, right?

Sodboy13 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Is Lukas in the hospital after this one? Someone should check on the guy and make sure he's okay.

Billy B Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 The Mets made the correct cap decision for this jersey and I think it looked pretty good. Not as good as a totally blue/orange alternate with the blue cap would look, but for what they were working with they looked pretty good. The all-blue cap would have looked out of place with as much black as there is on the BP jersey. It may not be ideal, but I think this shows that a blue Mets alt jersey will look good.

RyanMcD29 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yeah, personally they shoulda gone with the road hats and then they'd have one really sharp looking set. Even so it looks good, especially considering they're using a BP jersey Twitter: @RyanMcD29 // College Crosse: Where I write, chat, and infograph lacrosse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongoose Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 The road hat would have looked a little better, but those Mets jerseys looked fine, considering they were BP jerseys. It's always nice to see the Mets move towards blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FooMasterX5 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 F*** yeah! that is head over heels better than that batting practice experiment@AdamRubinESPN "The #Mets will wear their new blue "Los Mets" jerseys tonight. It's the style, minus the Los, that should be officially in rotation in 2013." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 It should be in the rotation next year. It can't be a regular alternate, but they could call a game "NY heritage night" or something dumb like that and wear it a handful of times next year, they just can't wear it as much as other teams wear alts, which is unlimited. Either way, it is great to finally see the Mets returning. All that remains of the black will be alt caps and jerseys next year, and those might be gone by 2013.
