Not only are the Minnesota Twins moving into a new stadium next year, they will also be sporting new away uniforms, a 1961 throwback home uniform, and new patches commemorating their 50th year and the inaugural season at Target Field.

Personally I love the throwback, which they will wear for the home opener, but don't like the other choices at all. First of all, the new away uniform looks exactly like the Detroit away uniforms, in my opinion. Just replace the Twins red outline for orange (not a big difference) and switch the city names and presto, the Twins uni is now a Tigers uni. Secondly, my favorite uniforms from last year were the home white ones without pinstripes, which it looks like will be absent from the rotation this year. So, in conclusion, Bill Smith has made another bad move, and our favorite team will look worse for it.
Since we're on the subject of Bill Smith, I also am not as enamored.... go there - http://www.thegoldseat.com/2009/11/16/new-twins-uniforms-and-bill-smith-disappoint-me/
