    MLB apologizes to Astros & fans for early logo leaks

    [rquoter]“We apologize to the Houston Astros and their great fans for the premature, online availability of officially-licensed product featuring the new Astros logo. It is an error that should have been caught and an error we regret. We look forward to the complete, official uniform and logo unveiling … at Minute Maid Park with great excitement.”[/rquoter]

    And the article continues:

    [rquoter]“As a result, we will allow the Astros to move back to the National League in 2014, while simultaneously contracting the Milwaukee Brewers franchise.”[/rquoter]

    MLB runs all websites. This isn't an Astros issue.

    There are, technically, two alternates, although one is officially a batting jersey. Bingo on the orange alternate. And yes - the batting jersey very cleverly features the rainbow.

    I won't speak to how sad it is that this is the best non-Texans sports week for Houston fans in 2012. :)

    Question about the Altuve picture: is that the correct blue? It doesn't seem navy enough.

    was going to ask the same thing....i'm guessing that the academy t-shirt leak had to have been the correct blue, so that one isn't. wouldn't mind it though.

    these are gonna be cool.

    Crane might as well cancel the "unveiling" of the logo now. I heard Academy is going to lose a lot of money because of the leak but the MLB? Crane's thier ***** so I doubt anything happens

    Still the first chance to buy the stuff. They're advertising that they have a limited amount of jerseys already for sale.

    And I still haven't seen the actual uniforms yet. I'm taking my 2 boys, and we're looking forward to it.

    what does this mean? you approve of the unis?
    I love the retro feel to them.

    how about a 20 game winning pitcher and a center fielder with some pop to go along with those unis. that'd be nice. =)
