10. 2016-Present red alternates

If there’s going to be one constant in this list, it’s going to be a pure hatred for Kasota Gold. The Twins introduced the gold lining to several of their jerseys prior to the 2015 season and in 2016, the Twins took this one step further by creating a red jersey that came straight out of hell.

The gold lining around the neck is a little distracting, but the giant TC logo draped in gold makes me long for the straight-up white and blue TC logo that’s used on the caps during the 1970s (more on these later in the list).

Perhaps the one thing that really drives these down, however, is the blue numbers and lettering outlined by white and gold. Maybe if the Twins had gone with just blue and white numbers (like the Cleveland Indians did in their red alternates that debuted last season), it would look OK. But with the gold outline thrown in, there’s just too much going on.
