Astros screw up, show everyone most of the uniform

Over at SportsLogosNews, they take the Astros Launch Party invitation and do some filtering to see what the new unis look like.

We're not going to take their pageviews, so go on over and look for yourself.

And I was going to leave it at that, but decided to comment further. Are the Astros Marketing Staff kidding? The Joe Niekro Incident, Lowrie beating cleanup from the lead-off spot, error-filled tweets, and now they (probably) just blew the whole point of whipping up excitement over new uniforms because they didn't think, "Hey, maybe we shouldn't use the actual jersey and turn off some lights for a picture?"
