    Astros aren't even winning Texas.

    I know people like the return to the old logo, but our unis are pretty bland and generic.

    I guess that kinda sums up overall interest in the team based on this season. Still, the diehards gotta come out and support.

    I think the pics they used look terrible, and isn't complete without the hat.

    The most cherished baseball uniforms are pretty bland and generic. Nothing particularly flashing about Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs, etc.

    Disappointing to see us losing to the Orioles horrible unis, but at this point, this is basically a popularity contest, and we couldn't win one of those even when we were contenders. I voted anyway to make the loss look more respectable.

    Astros are a #4 seed American League <-- :( rank on that list. Thats darn solid for a "bland" uniform and even blander play on the field.

    The Orioles white-front cap look and white unis is a classic baseball look. That one's the possible winner over Astros unis

    (Really its hard to mess up a white baseball uni. Some people would say old Astros rainbow unis did, but I don't think so. I think the old White Sox jersey was worse. But original Devil Rays probably did)

    I can say that I barely miss the previous Astros uniforms

    The best things the astros have done so far are the new jerseys. I love them.

    I don't get the "bland" statement at all. They're not the rainbow jerseys but I'm not sure which team's uniform would be considered not bland? The marlins?

    love our new jerseys, EXCEPT that blue alternate. to me it just looks like a batting practice shirt, couldve been so much better.
