Best Possible Names For Utah’s Future Major League Baseball Team!

1. Utah Bee's, Utah Buzz, Utah Sting:

One of these would be my FIRST CHOICE for a team name! We're the Beehive State. Give me SOMETHING about Bees! We currently have the Salt Lake Bees and it's such a cool mascot! I love the colors too!

2. Utah Pioneers:

The entire Western United States were discovered by the Pioneers. However, it is cool enough? Is it intimidating for a team name? I'm not so sure!

3. Utah Outlaws:

This one might have some legs! In the 1800's, Utah was FULL of Outlaws! I mean, notorious outlaw, Butch Cassidy called Utah home!

4. Utah Saints:

This one makes sense! Salt Lake City is headquarters of the Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! Will they do something religious like that? Would it be a bad look to take ANOTHER mascot from New Orleans? We already stole the Jazz!

5. Utah Raptors:

Raptors are SCARY! I'm not even sure they're indigenous to the state, but Raptors are SCARY! Remember the scene in Jurassic Park? The raptors in the kitchen? So scary!

6. Utah Bison:

Bison are the largest mammals in Utah and It could be fun if there was a "Western" type feel for the team. Bison could help bring that in.

7. Salt Lake City Seagulls:

This name is maybe the LEAST intimidating, but Salt Lake City has HELLA SEAGULLS, and it's the state bird. I also like the use of the "S" sound with Salt, City, and Seagulls.

8. Salt Lake Lakers:

This one is actually kind of tough for me because SCREW THE LAKERS! But it also fits the area better than it does Los Angeles. I just can't imagine ever saying "LET'S GO LAKERS!"
