Wichita, KS where I live brought the New Orleans Babycakes to town to bring back affiliated baseball. I literally said, well at least they can't come up with a worse name than Babycakes. Boy was I wrong

The Wichita Wind Surge is the proud new Florida Marlins affiliate. Is that fun?

Kraken is bad, but not as bad as the Wind Surge...oh, and the logo......its maybe worse.

Hopefully Seattle knocks the logo and jersey out of the park
