8. Minnesota Twins

The Minnesota Twins have one of the most unique primary logos in the league with their intertwined “TC” which represents the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. It’s a creative way to represent a team name that doesn’t lend itself to an actual mascot or cartoonish logo. The T.C. also presents an opportunity for a geography lesson for any young fans who aren’t familiar with Minnesota metropolitan areas.

Getting down to the uniforms themselves — the Twins have a very sharp set of threads, and each of their combinations is strong. The home whites are simple but have just enough going on so as not to be boring. The team’s most recent update to the home uniforms eliminated pinstripes, which is always a good idea. Generally speaking, the fewer MLB teams wearing pinstripes, the better. Adding a little pop of gold (they claim it is the color of famed Kasota limestone) to the chest lettering was also a solid update.

The Twins also eliminated the pinstripes on their road uniforms and now only use them on an alternate. Navy blue, scarlet and gold are all strong, emphatic colors. I like the red alternates, which feature the T.C. logo on the chest, in particular.

These uniforms might not be everyone’s first thought for great MLB uniforms, but they are underrated and under the radar — just like the Twins. Good colors, interesting logo and simple, clean design. That’s enough to put the Twins in the top 10 here.
