Welcome to part three of our look at the uniforms of Major League Baseball. Kicking things off today…teal.
Teal’s a great color, I don’t care what anyone says.
The Mariners have had pretty much the same uniforms since Ken Griffey Jr. played for them, with some minor tweeks, and they should stay that way.

19. Washington Nationals
One of the newer kids on the block, the Nationals were smart in incorporate the old Washington Senators logo into their own.

18. New York Mets
Getting rid of the shadowing on their script was the best thing the Mets could have done. Their current incarnation is simple, clean, fun, and classic. Everything you want in a professional baseball team’s look.

17. Cincinnati Reds
The current look for the Reds is nearly perfect for them. My only grip is the shadowing, but that’s a personal preference. I don’t think the Reds could come up with a better design for their team than what they have now…minus the shadowing.

16. Atlanta Braves
I love the Braves home and alternate caps, but I hate their road caps. It just looks like too many other caps out their, too plain.
Speaking of which, I really hope they dump their alternate away uniforms soon. Too much blue.
