Fort Wayne Tin Caps voted best new logo

Headline-default_medium

via www.tincaps.com

Baseball in Fort Wayne brings us the news:

With 1,387 votes being cast by Minor League Baseball fans across the country, the TinCaps garnered 793 votes (57% of all votes cast) to route the competition. 

I'll be perfectly honest and admit that I hadn't even realized that the Wizards had changed their name. I'm looking forward to the actual uniforms. I'm picturing some Captain EO style metallic fabrics and/or extensive use of vegegation.

Maybe a Project Runway episode is needed here! Make it work!

I like this logo

though the apple should look more friendly and be missing a tooth.

It took me forever to figure out

that there’s not a branch growing out of the metal.

i thought it was a guy with a really really red face and a huge double-chin, then the branch confused me….

Meatball reincarnate.

Yes. Hoffman’s agent is a sloppy drunk. That is exactly what I’m saying.

Much better than 'Wizards'.

Everyone Seems to Love it But Fort Wayne

When they first announced the new name and logo, there was a lot of backlash in the community. I was glad to see the MiLB faithful recognize it’s fit with the rest of the Minor League Baseball landscape. Heck, when the Wizards’ name was announced more than a decade ago, most of the communtiy hated it too. Can’t wait to see the merchandise either. I’m told it should be available in time for the holidays.
