2012 MLB UNIFORM CHANGES Five teams have made wholesale changes to
their uniforms in 2012, while a sixth will have new road uniforms.
The San Diego Padres were the first team to announce changes to their logos
and uniform set on November 9. The new primary features the "SD" cap logo
inside a navy circle with the words "San Diego Padres Baseball Club"
encircling it. The "swinging friar" logo was also revived, albeit in the
current colors. Another secondary logo features the Padres script from last
season below the depiction of Petco Park in sand and above the year of
establishment; a blue and white version is used on the away and alternate
uniforms. The front of the home uniform remains the same, except that the
sand trim in "Padres" is now in trim instead of a drop shadow and the
addition of navy piping. Originally they'll use the sand Petco patch on the
left sleeve, but upon unveiling the uniforms, the "swinging friar" patch
was placed instead. The road uniforms now feature "San Diego" in an arched
position with navy piping. The alternate blue uniforms feature the "SD" cap
logo on the left chest with white piping. All three uniforms now feature
the block lettering on the reverse side. The digital camouflage uniforms
were retained, save for the change to block lettering. The caps with the
sand "SD" were retired.
The Miami/Florida Marlins unveiled their changes on November 11, 2011, as
the team is being re-branded as the Miami Marlins complete with a new logo
featuring a stylized Marlin jumping over a art deco colored "M" in coral,
yellow and blue. "MIAMI" will grace the primary white uniform, and there
will be an orange home alternate which feature the team name, while the
black alt is being reduced to road alternate jersey. The black cap will be
used for the regular home, away and black alternates, while the orange cap
will be paired with the orange alternates. The Marlins become the second
team to use the city (or state) name on the home uniforms, after the Texas
Rangers.
The Baltimore Orioles redesign their road and home uniform sets and
returned to a version of the cartoon logo used from the mid 1960's to 1988.
The home caps are white in front and black on the back with an orange bill,
while the away caps will be all black with an orange bill, both featuring
the cartoon bird. They also unveiled a modernized version of the orange
alternate uniforms last worn in 1992, and will be worn on select home
games, but retained the black alternate uniforms paired with the black and
orange cap with the "O's" script.
As part of their golden anniversary season, the New York Mets have modified
their home and road uniforms to the style worn in 1962, having their
unveiling November 16. All elements of black were removed from the white
pinstriped home uniforms (now the primary home uniform), the white home
uniforms, and the grey away uniforms. In addition, the black alternate
(which will be worn primarily on the road) is being phased out, which will
be replaced by a blue alternate starting in 2013, and the black cap a blue
bill and the black cap have been retired.
The San Francisco Giants may return to an updated version of 1980’s road jersey
for the 2012 season. The Giants would be the only current team to have two
separate grey jerseys worn regularly, and the first since the Texas Rangers
in 2006-2008 wore a sleeveless grey alternate for select road games. San
Francisco began using the "SF" on the left breast with black piping back in
1983 season to replace the orange road jersey they used for six seasons.
The Toronto Blue Jays unveiled new uniforms on November 18, returning to a
variation of their vintage logo used from 1977 through 1996. The new logo
is similar to the original used from 1977–96, with a few exceptions: a more
prominent maple leaf, a sleeker-looking blue jay, serifed modern lettering
on the team name, and a split-line blue circle enclosing the logo. The new
uniforms were similarly based on the set used from 1992–96; a white home
uniform with "Blue Jays", a grey road uniform with "Toronto", and a blue
alternate uniform with "Blue Jays". The team/city name is arched above the
secondary logo of the blue jay with the maple leaf, sans the baseball,
situated on the left side. The secondary logo is also placed in the blue
cap. The uniforms will use the breathable double-knit polyester fabric,
claiming the lighter Climate Base fabric become too heavy once player
sweat.
The Colorado Rockies in 2012 will be wearing new road jerseys. The new
uniform is a pinstripe-free version of their previous road jersey. The
Rockies were the final Major League team to wear pinstripes on a road
uniform after the Minnesota Twins also dropped their road pins following
the 2009 season. The Rockies wore a similar jersey for their first eight
seasons with “ROCKIES” in place of “COLORADO” on the front of the jersey.
The Seattle Mariners after reviving the popular Northwest Green (real:
Teal) jerseys at home, the Mariners are bringing back their teal with navy
bill caps that were introduced in 2000 when the team moved into Safeco
Field for Monday and Friday home contests. Also, their navy road alternate
will now have "SEATTLE" on the jersey front.
The Kansas City Royals unveiled minor tweaks to their light blue home
alternate jersey (with all numbers and lettering now white with royal trim,
save for left lower front) and a revamped away uniform (changed to a
darker blue-gray color and a revamped "Kansas City" script.) In addition,
the team has dropped their light blue caps.
The Cleveland Indians made minor tweaks to the home and alternate uniforms.
The white home uniform features navy collar piping and the 'Indians' script
in red and navy trim, removing the white inner trim as well as the navy
piping on the button lines. The navy alternate features grey collar piping
and the 'Indians' script in red and white trim, removing the navy inner
trim as well as the grey piping on the button lines.
The Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints have some game worn jerseys
available on their web site.
If you have any news that you believe that other collectors would be
interested in please let me know and I will pass it along. Thanks!!!

I try and update the web site every weekend unless there is nothing to
report. Please check in often to see what is new in the world of
collecting. To get this Update emailed to you on a regular basis just send
me an email requesting to be added to our FREE Newsletter mailing - It is
normally available every weekend and features all the new additions, price
changes and collecting information. At one time we kept a "Want List" but
over the years it just became too large and unmanageable. Getting the
Newsletter will inform you when that piece you are seeking becomes
available.
