15. Los Angeles Angels

Welcome to part four of our MLB uni ranking series. We start today with the Angels…

Solid scrip, solid color scheme, solid logo and design…just solid all around. Love these kits.

14. Baltimore Orioles

I love how the Orioles brought back their trucker cap look and updated their bird mascot on their caps.

13. Kansas City Royals

Clean, simple, and classic. The current sets for the Royals are probably their best ever. I think any attempt to “improve” on Kansas City’s current uniforms would be a gross error in judgment. These are ones to keep for a long long time.

12. Pittsburgh Pirates

I like the idea of their mustard-yellow hats, but not as crazy when I actually see them in action. Luckily the rest of their sets are beautiful. The home whites and away greys are very classic looking and immediately resonate with fans that it’s a Pirates uniform. I am particularly a fan of their alternate black uniform. This is one of the best in baseball, I love the way the solid gold pops on the black canvas.

11. Toronto Blue Jays

This is another great example of taking a classic look everyone associates with your club, modernizing it, and making it look even better than the original. The Padres could learn a thing or two from the Blue Jays here.

Tomorrow we’ll finally crack the top ten!
