The Pittsburgh introduced new red uniforms that make the Astros and Padres uniforms of the 70s look good.

What do you think?

0	The Pirates uniforms are some of the best in baseball. Why are they doing this? This red one's hideous.

0	I liked the new diamondback uniforms, I wish the Phillies would adopt some sort of new jersey. A vest would be nice.

They would work with most teams, with the exception of a few teams with older traditional uniforms, like the Dodgers, Giants, Red Sox, Yankees, Cardinals, Cubs. But vest jerseys look great.

But vest jerseys look great. Yea someteams shouldn't change their jerseies at all. CF, the old baby blue jerseys were nice. I'd love to see em worn more as a 3rd/ alternate/ special occasion jersey.

after seeing the red team jacket 10 days ago or so, i saw this move coming..very hideous indeed

as for the phils unis, ive been saying that the phils should go to the vests for years and get a red jersey similar to spring training/batting practice with a few tweaks. i had a black phillies jersey that didnt look too bad either, that could look nice. im not a huge fan of the baby blue, i wouldnt mind seeing it a game or 2 a season, but wouldnt want it worn a lot

0	Wow. OMG. Anybody remember these jersies? http://www.angelfire.com/blues/new_yorker/TATC.html The Padres one is especially dreadful, IMO. Wait...every single one is dreadful.
