An “alternate” logo of major league baseball’s Florida Marlins, used from their inaugural season as a National League expansion team in 1993 until 2004. The Marlins have been one of the most successful expansion franchises in professional sports, having won 2 World Series in their short history, in 1997 and again in 2003. Their amateur scouting has been second to none over the years, with the organization finding such bright stars as Livan Hernandez, Edgar Renteria, Josh Beckett, Preston Wilson, A.J. Burnett, Adrian Gonzalez, Mike Lowell, Dontrell Willis and more recently Dan Uggla and Hanley Ramirez. Unfortunately they also have a reputation for letting a lot of these players walk away in free agency. The team has a new stadium under construction on the site of the old Orange Bowl that is due to open for the 2012 season, and when they move into their new digs they’ll be known as the “Miami Marlins”.
