There have been plenty of rumors floating around the Internet the last
few weeks about the new look of the Miami Marlins. On Friday night,
the team held a party to unveil the name change, new logos and
uniforms. Here is a video of the fashion show portion of the
celebration:
MLB.com provides some background information explaining the color
schemes and logos:
Blue, red-orange and yellow are their primary colors, and the old "F"
of the Florida Marlins has been replaced by an "M" with a fish figure
attached to it, becoming the new logo.
The colors were chosen to reflect trendy Miami.
"We are the red-orange, of the breathtaking Miami sunsets and the
citrus industry," [Owner Jeffrey] Loria said. "The blue of the sky and
the sea. And the yellow of the beautiful Miami sunshine."
There are three jerseys -- black, grey and red-orange.
"Both home and road jerseys will be emblazoned with the name Miami, to
symbolize this historic move and embrace our city," Loria said. "We're
proud of who we are, and where our home is, and we want to remind the
whole world every time we take the field."
What do you think? It could definitely be worse. The colors work and
are similar enough to their old colors that they didn't make a
complete change, but they're different enough to help the team form a
new identity. The logo looks a little too 1990s video game for me,
but the uniforms work. Take the new exciting look, the new stadium,
the extravagant home run celebration machine, and the reports about
the Marlins chasing after free agents, and this team might even
average more than 10,000 fans a night.
