So, is the home one any different other than no number on the front?

I like the road one, which is actually pretty similar to the old Montreal road one.

a couple more changes to keep an eye out for:

-- the Orioles returning "Baltimore" to the road jersey
-- the Rangers returning to red

i'd be in favor of a "philadelphia" road gray, as i think many others on here are as well

He just had an interaction with a female Oriole.

Pining for the fjords I think. Great plumage though.

The Marlins are loading up on Second Basemen... that is interesting indeed.

The Marlins received second baseman Emilio Bonifacio and two minor leaguers: second baseman Jake Smolinski and righthander P.J. Dean.

Arbitration eligible Dan Uggla, that other rule 5 success story, seems pretty key to the Marlin's identity, and has that Utley appeal, and I like that he cannot hit Moyer.

This article suggests tat Uggla stays, Bonifacio to third and everyone's favorite Cantu to first. The good news is that the pesky Marlins may create just enough confusion to make them inconsistent, reducing one factor in a repeat winning the NL East.
