  • Home Cap: 22nd
  • Home Jersey: 24th
  • Road Cap: 20th
  • Road Jersey: 24th

The Good: Most baseball fans either love or hate the Seattle Mariners’ uniforms, which were rebranded using navy blue, northwest green and silver in 1993 after the franchise used royal blue and yellow as primary colors from its inception in 1977. Some complain that the modern color set fit the 1990s, but now looks outdated and ugly. I disagree. I think it fits the city and the team name perfectly, and I even like the northwest green alternate jerseys and green-billed cap on the rare occasion the team wears them.

The Mariners also did a wonderful thing this season by incorporating an alternate Sunday home uniform using a throwback blue and yellow color scheme. It’s a great mash up of a solid modern logo with a more traditional color set that gives a nod to the past.

The Bad: I do like the northwest green home alternate jersey, but am not as big a fan of the navy blue road alternate, and specifically the font used for the numbers on that particular top. Otherwise, there’s really nothing wrong with Seattle’s uniforms, they just rank a little low on this list because there are a lot of great uniform combinations in Major League Baseball today.
