"Multiple-Jersey Disorder Happens To Be Endemic Among The Teams With The Least History"

I wish it listed who the 7 teams are that only use two jerseys. I can only think of the Yankees and Tigers right now. The Nationals technically only have two, but they wore their BP jersey in a game last week.

The Red Sox and Braves have new red jerseys this year. The Cubs and Dodgers have BP-style blue jerseys (I know for the Cubs and think for the Dodgers).

Do the Phillies still have those blue jerseys, or are they just for BP?

Who else doesn't have a third (or fourth) jersey?

Hey, I stumbled upon this story, which names the 7 teams with 2 outfits: Detroit, the New York Yankees, the Los Angeles Dodgers, Philadelphia, St. Louis, San Francisco and Washington (the BP jersey apparently doesn't count to them). It also said that "Colorado, Houston and the New York Mets each will use five sets of uniforms this year." The first story says the Royals and Twins have 4. That's 37 uniforms among 12 teams, 61 left for the other 18. Still not sure about the Phillies, though.

Thanks! I guess the Giants dropped those black jerseys they used to wear on Friday at home (with special black hats that had a black SF on the front - outlined in orange).

I would have sworn the Dodgers wore some blue tops last year too, but I'm probably imagining that.
