Replacing the AL West

DALLAS TITANS
Download this team



Why Titans?: The Magnolia pegasus is one of the few things that is quintessentially Dallas, and it makes such cool imagery as a team logo. "Titans" was actually originally a placeholder name for me, but since it does make a solid nickname and both it and the pegasus have allusions to Greek mythology, I have really grown to like it.

Colors: navy #060964, red #f0154a







HOUSTON HURRICANES
Download this team



Why Hurricanes?: This one sort of explains itself, I think. The Canes resisted all my attempts to come up with a more traditional primary logo, so we let the H-with-hurricane-flags stand pretty much on its own instead. Just as with the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes, those flags lend the team their colors of black and red.

Colors: black #101010, red #d40000







LOS ANGELES PALMS OF ANAHEIM
Download this team



Why Palms?: Nothing is more LA than a palm. Neither the yellow nor the pink looked quite right on their own as secondary colors, but this concept was begging for a gradient anyway.

Colors: green #104c1a, yellow #fbf8cb, pink #fbcbfb







OAKLAND ACORNS
Download this team



Why Acorns?: At first glance, you might think I'd be reviving the old PCL Oakland Oaks name, but I went with Acorns - mainly because I want this team to coexist with the Hartford Oaks team from my other thread although I believe this name works just as well.

Colors: brown #4c3b19, tan #a68d5b, #dec799







SEATTLE PILOTS
Download this team



Why Pilots?: I like the real-life Seattle Pilots imagery a lot, but there was a bit of a hodge-podge element to it so it was fun trying to come up with something at least a little more coherent. (The primary logo has the team's wordmark above the winged wheel in white, hard to see here but prominent in-game)

Colors: navy #04266d, gold #fad151
