Not sure why the Tigers are so afraid to actually have a Tiger on their unis. This is for BP: have a little fun. Like this: http://i53.tinypic.com/b7xgzk.png

The picture you have of the Indians BP is from 2011. In 2012 they removed the red collar mess and simplified the ‘INDIANS’ script to just red outlined in white. But according to the new BP cap pictures, the three-color script may have made a return, but on the 2012 template.

The current C cap the Indians currently wear should be relegated to the BP caps or just an alternate cap.

I like them all, especially since the ugly piping on the bill is gone. And these are genuine 59fifties, with a high crown, hurray!

The day they bring back pullovers is the day I’m buying a practice jersey. These all look like flashy mess. The caps are hit and miss, although I do like the CWS cap.

KC – like it, even though i think they should have used some baby blue in it, tragedy they got away from it.

DET – I like the white panel, and at least the D’s will match on the unis, unlike their road unis

CWS – love it. love the grey

CLE – never really liked the C logo, im a fan of chief wahoo but i understand why they try to stay away

MIN – i dig them. i like the white panel more though

In reply to Kai. I agree. The Royals' front panel is the same color as the Twins' and the Tigers' front panels. The Royals will not be sporting a grey front panel, nor will their hat be light blue. It's royal and white.

In reply to Aaron. Yah that's what I was thinking everybody's wearing jersey patch logos on their BP caps so I think the twins should have one too.

The Royals’ new hat looks like it has the same front panel as the Tigers’ home and Twins’ home, both of which are white, so I think the Royals’ is white as well.

In reply to cm62198. Not a bad idea, but for batting practice only.

“In what could perhaps be the first time of a professional team following the design of one of their players personal gear, the Twins have a navy cap, with a white front.”

Weren’t the Rangers Statue of Liberty third jerseys based on goalie Mike Richter’s mask design?

I think the twins should add an alt with Minni and Paul on it.

I wouldn’t have minded the Tigers using the D and tiger logo on one of their BP caps (road) and the White Sox using their diamond and white sock logo for their BP caps. I see most teams using their sleeve logos on the BP caps.

In reply to Millsy.

They wore them as batting helmets with that really weird white “panel.”

For some reason, I seem to remember the Twins using that type of batting helmet in the ate 70s and early to mid 80s.
