brooks1957 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Better yet, there were 20 rounds - and the Tribe selected 18 pitcher, 1 outfielder, and 1 middle infielder. Hope they didn't cut off their nose to spite their face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft and develop them and than trade them for bats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdrawkcab321 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Lame. This organization is such a joke. Tito deserves a raise for everything he’s done despite this ownership. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take a LONG time for me to get used to saying "oh man theres a Guardians game tonight" 2) The Guardians is WAY WAY WAY better than the Spiders that sounds like a Madden created team name. Of all the mediocre names they sorted this, the Guardians is the one that sucked the least. Plus there is still the 'ians' in it 3) The logos could have been a lot better. The G with the baseball and wings is absolutely horrific. Why dont they just hire GV Artwork to design their logo. Clearly whoever designs them for the team is out of touch. I would like a unique logo that would look cool on a hat or shirt, you know, like Cheif Wahoo was. Ever since they banned that logo, they have played it beyond boring and safe with logos. 4) Can we quit with the boring semi-block lettering and get a real font with some sort uniqueness to it please. Of all the thousands of fonts out there they just seem to love 'this is the most boring and unassuming lets roll with it" Edited July 23, 2021 by AkronsWitness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It literally looks like they used a clipart baseball and added a G to the side of it. I need somebody under the age of 45 years old making logo decisions.

brooks1957 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Cleveland has been a key manufacturing center throughout the years. Why not The Builders, or the Forgers, or The Erectors...... Wait - I can hear the bad jokes on that last one already. Or they could have honored the commerce in the area because of Lake Erie. Could have been the Shippers, Transporters, or Sailors..... I am with you - AW - it will be a while, if ever, to get used to the Guardians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
