the admiral 28,765 Posted December 4, 2014 See, now that, I do like. Cool lettering, very nice color scheme. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mojo Maniac 49 Posted December 4, 2014 And perhaps best of all...one game cap, one BP cap, one primary logo and two alternates. What a concept! I really do like this identity, very well done.It also helps that in my five years of taking Spanish classes, "tortuga" was one of my favorite words to say. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PackerFan98 91 Posted December 4, 2014 I think it's a great logo package. Like The Mojo Maniac said, nice and simple, not eighteen logos. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBurmy 1,138 Posted December 4, 2014 Apparently, Daytonans (is that what you call them?) are complaining in droves, mainly crying that "it's not an American team name," etc. etc.Reminds me of the backlash that the El Paso Chihuahuas got last year...an identity which I LOVED gets blasted by lots of people initially, but in the end, most of them get used to and appreciate it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sc49erfan15 2,374 Posted December 4, 2014 Love it. "Daytona Tortugas" came out of left field, but it rolls off the tongue very nicely. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sc49erfan15 2,374 Posted December 4, 2014 The Rome Braves have a new alternate logo:Personally, I can't unsee:Here's what I assume to be an alternate cap:Meh. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blackjack76 15 Posted December 4, 2014 Via the Tortugas' Twitter account:https://twitter.com/daytonatortugas/status/540532741016936448I. Love. This. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingLamprey 114 Posted December 4, 2014 Well I can't say I was expecting Tortugas at all, but I'll certainly take it wholeheartedly. The colors I love (maybe with bias as lime is my favorite color), though the dark green looks a little more blue on the uniform's wordmark. Probably the light blue outline playing tricks with me. And of course it's oceanic themed, which I love and it fits in well with other teams in the league (Hammerheads, Threshers, Manatees, Stone Crabs). Looks great. This was Studio Simon's work, correct?The new Rome one is just silly for me. I could see that being used for Sunday games or batting practice if anything. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WSU151 9,801 Posted December 4, 2014 Are the Tortugas using light blue or gray/silver? Having trouble trying to figure what exact color that is... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingLamprey 114 Posted December 4, 2014 Are the Tortugas using light blue or gray/silver? Having trouble trying to figure what exact color that is...Light blue. A clearer image from the mothership:Also everyone keep your eyes peeled, South Bend's about to reveal their new logo set. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gothamite 24,108 Posted December 4, 2014 Love that interlocking SB logo.Wow, two great minor league packages in one day. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mojo Maniac 49 Posted December 4, 2014 No swinging bear? What madness is this?And I agree with Gothamite, two great ones in one day. I too like the SB logo, and this one avoided looking overly cartoonish. Well done. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sc49erfan15 2,374 Posted December 4, 2014 Wow, that SB logo is definitely nice. And it's good to see a logo depicting baseball being played WITHOUT swinging a bat.I like the primary, but feel like it could've been simplified some. Starting with the C and going outward, there are 8 round "layers"... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingLamprey 114 Posted December 4, 2014 Echoing everyone on the SB logo, I love it. Anyone know the significance about the ivy in the main logo? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
