Big day today. An all Padre day. You would have thought it was Spanish father’s day with the amount of San Diego uniform work I did today. The Padres got a big-time throwback makeover, so all you San Diegans (or is it San Diego-ites? San Diego-uns? San Dieg-ons?) can write me a big fat check for $32.50, ’cause I deserve it.

Including San Diego, here are the teams that are included in Update 3:

Rays — Names fixed on 2008 uniforms, added 1998 throwback uniform

Rockies — Re-done in new templates, added 1999 ‘Turn Ahead the Clock‘ uniform

Padres — Re-done in new templates (including throwback uniforms), new chest/script logos, added 1980s throwback uniform, 2001 throwback uniform

Baltimore — Re-done in new templates

Blue Jays — Re-done in new templates

Diamondbacks — Re-done in new templates
