The reason we like it because there was once a franchised named Spiders in cleveland...over 100 years ago is for sure old. Both of your reasons are old, not weak.
Wilmington blue rocks single A team.If not Blue Socks, Blue Rocks.
Plan W... The Cleveland Floaters?Wilmington blue rocks single A team.
OMG I love it! Our mascot could be Bernie Sanders sitting out in the coldLike sure Commodores sounds ok until we end up the Cleveland Commies and have hammer and sickle patches on hats.
Hydras could be pretty cool actually. I am liking Growlers as my latest wall flinger.Black widows
Sea serpents
Hydras
Would be in my short list for unique names
Interesting but 1) they are prey, not predators and humans eat them, 2) the Steel part makes you think of the Steelers, and 3) I don't know if the community can unite around a fish and a trout certainly has nothing to do with Cleveland baseball history.Steelhead are the mightiest of the trout. And the most noble fish in all of Lake Erie.
Jupiter Hammerheads are a Minor League team in Florida...used to go those games quite a bit as a kid during the short stint I lived there. Their branding is pretty cool.Hammerheads could be turned into a cool mascot, sort of combines industrial/construction with water. And while they don't live in Lake Erie, I don't think Tigers live in Detroit.
Blue something could be a nod to blue collar which could play nicely I guess.
My buddy said something to me like perhaps the Cleveland Smiths like a nod to blacksmith, metal worker and a nod to the steel industry. I didn't hate that completely.
Hammerheads is good. It's an intimidating, predatory animal. The team would be know as the Hammers for short. How about Triphammers?Hammerheads could be turned into a cool mascot, sort of combines industrial/construction with water.
