Other than adding an alternate in 2009, the Phils have had the same unis since 1992.
And they've been continuously terrible since 1883.
Their no frills road uniforms are hideous. The road ones offset the goodness (goodness- not greatness) of their home uniforms. So overall the Yankees are middle of the pack.
Probably not. The road uniforms are really not that great. The homes obviously are and the logo is iconic. But I definitely like the Cubbies better.Maybe that didn't quite come off as humbly as I intended.
Terrible, really? Why don't you like them, what's so terrible about the current ones?And they've been continuously terrible since 1883.
That would have been an awesome world series.
I actually love all the jerseys from the Schmidt eraTerrible, really? Why don't you like them, what's so terrible about the current ones?And they've been continuously terrible since 1883.
They look like someone took a giant #### on a flag. The burgundy color scheme worked much better, 1910 and 1990 version the only ones that don't completely suck IMO'Billy Bats said:Terrible, really?

First of all, what do you like about the Cubs over the Yankees? The color scheme is terrible and the pinstripes are modeled on the Yankees. For a historic franchise, there has been little consistency and their current look is pedestrian.The Cards are ok, but in the red scheme of uni's, the Reds are much better for my money. The sleeveless jersey added some great distinction and is a great look. No argument on the Dodgers, who I advocated for, or the Royals, who are somewhat modeled on the Dodgers, but still a nice clean neat look. I actually almost spoke up for them, and were I them, I'd go back to the road blues, as they were original, distinctive and stylish. As silly as the CARDINALS, looked in blue uniforms, thats how great the Royals looked in theirs. I love for teams to have as much personal flourish as possible in a baseball framework. I'm sure there is some bias here, but really, as Thunderlips mentioned, the goalposts of style move for the Yankees. You just can't argue with their style and consistency from a baseball fan perspective. Great, clean lines in logo and font, a statement in the lack of player names, no alternates, no pullovers, no BS. A great uni.
What's so great about it?

Ok I guess that's one way of looking at them. I'm not defending them, I think there kind of meh, the homes remind me of pajamas, I like the gray roadies better. I think the alternate ivory unis are pretty sweet though. And agree on the Schmtty era, especially the road powder blues. 
The Yankees road greys are extremely extremely average. Sorry. If this were a thing to just pick the one best individual jersey, then I could see your point. Their homes are great. As for the Cubbies, their home, road and alternates are all great.
To each their own but I don't see a particular aesthetic pizzaz in their road unis, particularly as compare to the yanks. I will say this, l loved the solid blue top road jersey with grey pants from the 80s. And wrigleyville has the best fan generated t shirts I've seen in baseball. Love the "W" incorporation too.'Premier said:
Their home whites are a straight knock off of the Dodgers, without the cool red number. Nothing to see here.
which ones? road, alt, homes, all of the above?
i will murder you if you dont tell me.
Glad to see the players know what's up. Being #17 on the list in the OP is a joke.
All blue but the Giants.
The OP was pretty solid, imo.SF was a travesty, of course, they've got some great uni's.WAS doesn't have the best uni's in the league, but they certainly aren't a bottom 5 uni. Love the W.Other than that, I think analysis is mostly spot on. Particularly TOR and HOU.When I first saw the HOU uni's, I remember thinking, "wow, those are sharp", but it felt odd for HOU to have them, as I prefer them in something a little ridiculous. To HOU's credit, of the teams trying to fake classy only to end up incredibly boring (MIL, SD, HOU), I think HOU did the best job of it. At least it's not the stupid Bagwell to Clemens era HOU uni's. Those things were awful. If HOU is intent on not bringing the rainbow's back, these new ones are about as good as they are going to get. It's not a TOR sized makeover, but it's not far off either.Actually, all of this probably means I disagree with HOU's ranking.
