Even though I haven’t liked most of these designs, and I don’t expect to be a huge fan of these, I’m excited to see what we get.  Seems like it’s been forever since we got a new jersey

I'm sure it will look just as, erm, interesting as all the previous special event jerseys.

The Nationals revealed theirs today.  Ours could come pretty soon.  Here’s theirs.

These are not heterosexual.

And of course all of last years

Anyone have any personal hopes in terms of design/color scheme?

Some of those aren't terrible. Lol @ "Los Dodgers."

The Giants don't have one this year.

All teams that got one last year are keeping them for at least 3 seasons I believe

San Francisco will feature a beautiful cluster of dirty needles, and the Dodgers will have what looks a little bit like one huge asterisk on the chest to represent Los Angeles as the butthole that it is.

Not Mickey Mouse would be nice....  but it likely will.

How about Never Never Land?

That would be the Dodgers and their having won a WS in a non Mickey Mouse season this century..

I know it's already been done but... Tragic Kingdom?

I think Neverland Ranch closed many years back.

It was open for 12 years.  Just like Michael always said, some things are just less appealing after 12 years.

They're hit or miss. The Angels issue is that they aren't LA and the connections with Anaheim are either contentious, or revolve around Disney, which is also a sore subject. There also isn't a discernible identity to Anaheim other than generally being part of the greatest LA metropolis. So maybe something to do with orange county? 

Hard to say.

Their best bet may be to hitch their wagon to Gene Autry's stuff...  But it will be Disney.

Yeah, prepare for it to be a Los Angeles theme. People want to say OC is another area, but honestly it's not. It's 20 min south of Downtown Los Angeles... LA is a big city. We're closer to the center of the metropolis than Texas and other parks..

Really, this should be easy:
