News: Ballpark & Uniform Announcements in Dec.
Mets Exec. Vice Pres. Dave Howard told reporters today that the
team will make an announcement regarding changes to Citi Field and the team’s uniforms in December.
…from what i can gather, the team has discussed the idea of making changes to the outfield wall, though i am near certain they will not be moving them in… so, maybe the height, maybe the color, who knows… they have already started making changes to the bullpen area, putting both bullpens on the same level… also, i think there has been talk of painting the stairwells blue and orange, as well as adding a museum, which they’ve been hinting at in public for quite some time…
…as for the uniforms, towards the end of last season there was talk of them introducing a ‘retro jersey,’ i.e., egg-shell color, thin pinstripes, blue hats and stirrups, and no black… of course, they’ll also wear the modern, no-pinstripe, bright-whites with the drop shadow… i have no idea what is going on with the road uniforms… the jerseys will have names on the back, which is a shame… i prefer the opposite, since it should only be about the name on the front…
