Chances are, if you've been following MLB long enough, you have seen your team's apparel transform through the years. While some people might miss their favorite club's uniform from days gone by, the general consensus is that the attire worn today is the best.

Today we will take a look at these modern MLB uniforms and rank the top five.

The reason the Chicago Cubs uniform appears on this list is straightforward: the C. It is one of the most iconic logos in professional sports. Simply put, the Cubs wouldn't be the same without the encircled C on their shirts and caps.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are a dark horse candidate in this list. Even though this uniform is often overlooked, it deserves a place on this list because of its creativity. The color and font used in "DBACKS" and the player number give the outfit a retro feel. Also, the serpent on the sleeve with a baseball in its fangs is an emphatic design.

#1 New York Yankees
