My Review of the 2026 MLB City Connect Uniforms

🏆 2026 MLB City Connect Rankings (Best → Worst)

1. Atlanta Braves

This is how you do it.
✔️ Baby blue jersey + white pants = clean
✔️ Stripe pattern (royal blue/red/royal blue) ties everything together
✔️ Old-school “Atlanta” cursive wordmark is perfect
✔️ Hat with the small “A” works great

👉 Only miss: the “ATL” on the sleeve. Don’t need it.
Overall: Outstanding. One of the best City Connects we’ve seen.

2. Pittsburgh Pirates

They nailed it.
✔️ Stuck to black, gold, and a touch of red
✔️ “Pirates” wordmark is unique and clean
✔️ Yellow hat with black bill = 🔥

👉 Only minor issue: number font
But overall, they respected their identity—and it shows.
Overall: One of the best.

3. Cincinnati Reds

I know this will be controversial… but I like it.
✔️ All red from head to toe works here
✔️ Black pinstripes pop nicely
✔️ Clean number font
✔️ Strong, simple identity

Coming off the black set, this feels like a solid evolution.
Overall: Big win.

4. Texas Rangers

Solid uniform… with one big issue for me.
✔️ Red jersey + cream pants works
✔️ Clean red hat with white “T”

❌ “Tejas” across the chest… I don’t like it.

I get what they’re going for culturally, but I’d rather see them stick with a more traditional approach.
Overall: Decent, but not top tier.

5. San Diego Padres

Middle of the pack.
✔️ “San Diego” wordmark looks good
✔️ Hat is fine
❌ Feels too similar to past looks (Giants vibe)
❌ Too many colors layered in (orange, red, baby blue on navy)
❌ Number font isn’t great

Nothing terrible… just not memorable.
Overall: Average.

6. Kansas City Royals

This one just doesn’t land for me.
❌ Color mix (purple + baby blue) feels random
❌ Number font is rough
❌ Hat doesn’t stand out

I get the “City of Fountains” idea… but visually it just doesn’t connect.
Overall: Not it.

7. Milwaukee Brewers

Confusing more than anything.
✔️ Blue base is solid
✔️ Barrel Man on the sleeve is a nice touch
❌ “Wisco” script — not a fan
❌ Color overload (yellow, orange, blue, black outlines…)
❌ Back name in orange? Why?

Feels all over the place.
Overall: Miss for me.

8. Baltimore Orioles

I’m torn… but leaning negative.
❌ “BMORE” across the chest — just don’t like it
✔️ Small detail: bird perched on the “R” is actually cool
❌ Cream + yellow + gold combo feels off
❌ Number font… just bad

They tried to go historical, but it didn’t translate well visually.
Overall: Not a fan.
