The three finalists for the new Zephyrs names are:

New Orleans Baby Cakes
New Orleans Night Owls
New Orleans Tailgators

I would take NOLA Jumbo Shrimp over those three any day of the week.

I hope at this point it's a joke and they won't change the name. I would've been ok with poboys but those final three are horrid

This isn't a terrible name....Suns is definitely better though. I like quirky team names in MiLB. I do HATE the finalists to replace "Zephyrs." I like the new Class A affiliate for the Braves in Kissimmee, FL.

I think NOLA Jumbo Shrimp would be better than those 3 too. Wtf are they thinking?

I also believe shrimp is more relatable to NOLA than Jax.

Jaguars are changing their name to Soft Shell Crabs to match their play.

Minor League baseball is all about being quirky and getting people to buy your hats now. The old Suns logo was terrible.

All of those are horrible. If they wanted to go Crawfish, they should've went with the Mud Bugs.


If it's open voting, I'm going with Baby Cakes. Mostly because it's the worst name I've ever heard, and sjws will think it's misogynistic, even though they're talking about king cakes.
