20. Milwaukee Brewers

The navy and wheat color scheme the Milwaukee Brewers currently feature on their uniforms probably make more sense for Wisconsin than the original royal blue and yellow the team brought with it from Seattle, but the colors are just so much more muted and boring than the originals. There are few better looks in the league than when the Brewers break out their throwbacks. Those would easily rank in the top ten, but the everyday 2019 uniforms are very ordinary.

Had the Brewers not abandoned their heinous blue and green design from the 1990s, they may have brought up the rear for the whole league. The use of wheat and barley in the uniform design does make sense given the team’s name, but no one headed to a baseball game should ever be super pumped up about grain. If the Brewers want to lean into the beer theme, they should bring back their original Barrelman logo. Barrelman is a huge upgrade over Bernie Brewer.

The Brewers did have the good sense to go back to the original ball and glove logo for their hats. By now, almost every one knows the glove is made up from a hidden ‘m’ and ‘b’ and it is so much better than the curly grain M.

If they went back to wearing any one of the different jersey designs from 1970 to 1992, the Brewers would instantly vault way up this list. They did too much to try and modernize the uniforms when they were already basically perfect.
