2010 BP Caps

MLB recently announced their new authentic batting practice caps for 2010. These are slightly different from the previous years cap that featured the small side panel arch. I thought I'd post some of the interesting ones here for discussion:


The Rangers cap is probably the cap that takes full advantage of the new style, the white piping and the red side panels on the bill.


 

The Rays cap made me hesitate. MLB teams have routinely shied away from pastel colors as being less-aggressive, so this one definitely stands out. I'm not as fond of it, but it's a bold move, and at least it'll keep heads a tad cooler in that Florida summer sun.


The Tigers road cap is my personal favorite. The orange against navy has always worked so well for Detroit, and this is just another example of that. An orange bill with navy side panels would have been primo.



The Braves cap is also a nice cap, but doesn't fully commit to fully extending the white piping down the bill. Still, it's a nice classic look.




As classic as this Indians cap looks, it doesn't at all utilize the style of the cap, so the piping appears awkward. A missed opportunity.


 

The A's cap is not all that different from the Tigers road cap, but my pet-peeve with it is the logo. The double outline on the logo is a no-no in my opinion. All it does is make the logo look fuzzy. Terrible.
