Gothamite Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Yeah, it's not great. But the whole scheme is so much better than they've had in decades that I'm willing to overlook such trivial details.

WSU151 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Astros now have a two tone blue star on their Orange caps. https://twitter.com/AstrosTalk/status/452545029827866624/photo/1I like how the seam in the hat is vertical, and the star is about 4 degrees northeast. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rays Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I really dont see the love for the brown and yellow, sure its unique for a uniform, but I can definitely see why the team went to navy, brown and yellow is just an ugly color combo. I really dont see more people going out and buying brown and yellow merchandise over navy stuffI agree man, brown and yellow = flush it.........some red in there too ? = Go easy with the TP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 At least there's some intrinsic character in a set that uses colors as unique as brown and yellow (or even orange), as opposed to the soulless / directionless sets they've worn in recent years. Even the navy and orange set had a little personality, until they diluted it all at the end with all of the alts and variations.

PhantomDreamer Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Pittsburgh Pirates are once again, wearing Sunday "throwbacks" this season. Unfortunately, Majestic is MLB's uniform supplier and there's no middle ground and no such thing as well fitting baseball uniform. The jersey is too baggy, the sleeves are too long. The pants are too baggy and too short and the inclusion of fake stirrups is nothing short of criminal. Majestic seems intent on destroying anything from the Golden Age of the Baseball Uniform. I will always give the Pirates franchise credit for being the first baseball team to wear athletic wear, but this isn't good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like a 6-year-old in his older brother's uniform.Someone with inside knowledge posted a few years ago that, for whatever reason, Majestic manufactures their pullovers as one size up from their button-ups. So, if a player normally wears a 48, when it's throwback day, they're pulling on a jersey that fits like a 52. The end result is, well, you can see it above.

The_Admiral Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I still think the 2004 redesign had all the elements in place for a terrific uniform, they just made a few mistakes. Very few people are with me on this, but I'm sticking to it. If the "PADRES" lettering were a little taller, I'd get on board with those 1969 uniforms. I'd still rather just fine-tune the 2004s. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmrben Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I've found what appears to be the 2014 World Series logo, in the video game MLB 14: The Show. (I don't actually own the game, I'm going by a YouTube video of the Blue Jays' victory celebration.)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3qvGAaNwiIFor those of you unable or unwilling to open the video... I'm saddened to report that the logo appears to be exactly the same as last year's, just with the year removed. This is a distressing development, as MLB was the last holdout of the Big 4, in terms of making a unique logo for its championship every season.

This is a distressing development, as MLB was the last holdout of the Big 4, in terms of making a unique logo for its championship every season.This was the case in MLB 13: The Show for a few months after its release date. At launch, it came with the 2012 World Series logo but was updated a few months later with the 2013 logo. So the first few months of MLB 14 would see the 2013 logo until an update comes out with the 2014 logo. BEHANCE | PORTFOLIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the navy and orange set had a little personality, until they diluted it all at the end with all of the alts and variations.This was such a great look. Hands down my favorite for the Padres. Unique enough. Not gaudy (which is my feeling on brown/yellow).Obviously, by now some things would have changed...the road pinstripes and probably the home word mark, but this color scheme is great, and works on the gray of a road jersey as well as just about any. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

C's Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 If by 'great' you mean 'uglier than sin' than I would agree. Ditto for the brown/yellow. The brown/orange is also way too similar to the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouj Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 And as they did last year, the Astros continue with their Bush League policy of wearing the BP jerseys during Sunday home games. I said it last year, I'll say it again: stop dressing like a minor league team, it's bad enough you played like for the last 3 years.Just get a navy alt already if you want to wear blue so damn bad.

Brown and orange always worked better than the brown and yellow, IMO. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Baseball players should wear baseball uniforms, not "athletic wear".However, I will concede that he looks slightly more ridiculous than he would in a properly-fitted pullover with sansabelt pants.

JonBoy Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Wasn't it two-tone before? It didn't match the two-tone orange star on the home caps?No, it didn't match the homes. Glad they fixed it, that always bugged me about the new logos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
