    truth be told, aside from that soon to be joke of a homerun display, the ballpark is gonna be pretty sick. The glass panels have a view of the miami Downtown/brickell skyline, there's a swimming pool (rentable by groups per game), and the backstop is gonna actually be a huge dual panel aquarium

    While that... thing in centerfield is beyond putrid, I'm in the minority.. I like the uniforms. Not the logo... but the jerseys. The ballpark looks incredible. I'm going to be in Miami when they open up for exhibition games vs. the Yankees. I'm going to try and go.

    Red Grooms, a pretty well known artist for the past 30-40 years or so, was the one who designed it.

    i guess at 74 he's getting a bit senile. or maybe just the fact he's lived in New York so long made him intentionally make it terrible lol

    Just like to point out, the home-run atrocity is being paid for by tax revenue.

    Looks like a nice park. I hope they make the seats look nice,they will be showing a lot on tv,miami fans suck at supporting their teams.

    Going to be fun to see big Z implode in Miami instead of Chicago.

    If you are going to be a team from Miami, you might as well go balls out. I am a fan of the unis.

    Well this is a team that I absolutely love to hate, and they just made it easier with the "move" to Miami, and the new look.
