Fyre's Future MLB Set

Fyrestorm3 · 05-29-2015, 03:33 AM

ZIP FILE: MLB Redesign

Well, with my recent hard drive crash, I've had to re-create both my template and a few of my more recent jerseys, so I figured now's a good a time as any to update my entire league. No reason not to post them here while I'm at it. These are heavily based off of Gern's Re-Imagined MLB Jerseys, so a lot of credit goes to him.

Note: Each set will contain a main logo, alt logo, home jersey, away jersey, and cap. They'll be updated whenever I get them done.

In my universe, these jerseys came into play in 2016, as part of a league-wide re-design. Any team that has changed their look since 2016 will therefore have multiple sets. It's now 2021, though, and many teams have updated their logo and/or color scheme in the decade that the league's been running. Three teams (the Indians, Padres, and Orioles) have re-branded altogether. For those three, I'll post both their fictional design and a current-day one, so if anyone wants to use these as an MLB set, they won't be missing teams. But any other logo/color changes will stay as they are; this is my league after all; I'm just sharing.

I'll be going in reverse alphabetical order, because my naming convention starts with the team name, and it's nice to have the pictures I just made always sitting at the top of the list.

New York Yankees

The Yanks' classic uniforms made a pretty easy transition into the new style. A reversed color scheme on their home jersey and the addition of pinstripes on their away were really the only changes that needed to be made, and I doubt I'll touch these for years to come.

Fyrestorm3 · 05-29-2015, 03:56 AM

Chicago White Sox

Another recognizable look that didn't require many changes - at first. The only thing missing was a main logo, as I really don't like the over-simplified sock silhouette. So I updated the logo to include the team's classic "Sox" script on top of the diamond.

The ChiSox later switched from a black home jersey to a gray one, and switched the away paneling from gray to black, primarily due to my realization that their original uniforms looked strikingly similar to the Yankees'.

Fyrestorm3 · 05-29-2015, 02:10 PM

Minnesota Twins

The Twins initially tried to move away from their "TC" logo, but due to popular demand, brought it back on their caps a few years later. Silver was also incorporated into the home uniform.

Those look great Fyre.

I wish my template was nearly as organized as yours.

It wasn't, until I had to remake the entire thing.

But seriously, your original design was awesome and inspired me to do the whole side- and shoulder-panel thing.

I'll be getting to the rest of the set soon; got caught up doing the NBA D-League unis for Jay.

Pretty cool Fyre. I will use these at some point. Right now most of my MLB teams are using Pwal's David Miller uniforms (With the exception of the White Sox, how could you David Miller?). After that I probably will switch to these around 2035. When these are done I would like to get a zip if possible.

Yeah, I'll zip them up at the end. If you have any teams that have relocated or changed names, let me know. I'll be doing the extra jerseys from my own relocated teams anyway, so no biggie to do a couple more.

Fyrestorm3 · 06-05-2015, 10:14 PM

Gettin' right back into it...

Detroit Tigers

Someone explain to me how the TIGERS don't wear any orange? Yeah, we're fixing that. Other than the color change, this was a fairly standard update.

Anaheim Angels is the only change and I will have the Montreal Expos coming back soon.

I can do an Expos, no problem. And my Angels actually wear an away jersey that reads "Anaheim" with an "LA" patch under it. So it'll be simple to just remove the patch.

Fyrestorm3 · 06-11-2015, 06:57 PM

Cleveland Spiders

Yep, in 2015 (weird how that was far in the future at the time), the Indians finally caved to the politically correct pressure and moved away from their long-standing nickname, opting to bring back the old Cleveland Spiders. The "Cleveland" wordmark remains unchanged, save for the new color scheme, while the rest of the design, logos and all, got a major overhaul.

Note: While this is entirely custom work, the stylized spider in the main logo was found via a Google search, so chances are it's copyrighted. Just an fyi.

An Indians design will be coming in a minute.

Fyrestorm3 · 06-11-2015, 07:00 PM

Cleveland Indians

The color scheme got reversed on the home jersey, because I've always felt like the Indians were more of a red team than a blue one. Plus, in a division with Minnesota, Detroit, and Kansas City, some variation felt necessary. I also did up two hats, one with Chief Wahoo and one without.

Fyrestorm3 · 06-12-2015, 12:26 AM

Kansas City Royals

The Royals made a pretty simple transition into their new uniforms. Opting to go with their powder blue jerseys as their main, they also lightened the royal blue a few shades to match.

RchW · 06-12-2015, 01:02 AM

I'm looking to refresh a long running fictional mlb. These uniforms look great for that purpose. Thanks

The Game · 06-12-2015, 03:44 AM

Glad you made Cleveland Spiders as I use them in 2 leagues and the MLB Indians will change their name soon in my EBL vs MLB league.

Fyrestorm3 · 06-12-2015, 02:33 PM

Colorado Rockies

The Rockies donned a slightly modified logo on their home unis: their traditional "Rockies" text, overlayed against a modified version of the mountains in their main logo. Otherwise, no real major changes here.

PW MAX · 06-13-2015, 10:30 AM

Man, these are truly awesome! I'm loving every one of them so far. I usually play entirely fictional, but even when I go MLB, I usually go wild with the fiction, so these are just the thing. Can't wait to see the Cubs when you get around to that one. Any chance of the Brooklyn Dodgers making the list? I have a tendency to keep them in my games, (sometimes I even send the Mets to Los Angeles as the Metros).

txranger · 06-13-2015, 10:37 AM

Nice work on all of these... I will second that notion on doing the Brooklyn Dodgers... It just ain't the same without "dem bums" !!!

I'll add it to the list for when I get to the Dodgers.
