http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?...s_mlb&c_id=mlbTORONTO -- The Blue Jays dipped into their past when looking for inspiration for the club's new logo that was revealed at Rogers Centre on Friday afternoon.
The new look is a modernized version of the franchise's first logo that was used from 1977-97. It features a sleeker-looking Blue Jay bird head with a prominent red maple leaf to showcase Toronto's standing as the only Major League Baseball team in Canada.
The design also marks the return of "Blue" in Blue Jays for the first time in almost 10 years and will be reflected on two of the three uniforms.
MUCH better.

If the new logo resembles the original logo that much, they could have easily used the old one. Even the lettering looks the same. Waste of money. To me there is only one BJ logo: the inaugural one.

The Marlins could have easily used their old logo. The Angels didn't change the logo after they turned from Anaheim Angels to Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
This batting practice cap logo could have been used as main cap logo:
