Baseball fans roasted the awful logo for Orlando’s proposed MLB expansion team

Oh my …

Orlando Magic co-founder Pat Williams held a press conference on Wednesday to launch a campaign to bring an expansion MLB team to the city of Orlando. He had a name for the team — the Orlando Dreamers — and he brought props for the announcement.

But, oh man, it was a sad sight.

Williams, standing at a podium set up inside a golf course’s bar, unveiled the name and logo for his Orlando baseball franchise that essentially doubled as a declaration to the minimal effort invested in this whole process. Williams appeared to have built a logo entirely with clipart stock images.

That can’t be the finished product. There are beer league softball teams with more creative logos.

Williams said via wesh.com:

“Orlando has proven in the years since the Magic began playing in 1989 that it is every bit a big league sports town,” Williams said. “Soccer fans have embraced the Orlando City Lions, and now it’s time to step up to the plate and make baseball happen, too.”

“The next step is to try and become a Major League Baseball city,” Williams said.

But that logo. Ugh. Aside from pointing out that Florida is already home to two of baseball’s least successful franchises in terms of attendance, MLB fans just couldn’t stop roasting that logo.

Good luck with that one, Pat.
