Cleveland Quarantined?
Not catchy enough?

Welcome to Generic Field, on the shores of .... a Lake ..... for game #whatever with your Cleveland baseball team playing ... ah ... does it even matter anymore?

Cleveland Blue Collars
Cleveland Lunchpails
Cleveland Union
Cleveland Tough
Cleveland Workhorse
I dunno, something to be the first MLB team in 50+ years that wasn't a bunch of spoiled rich kids. I know I'm just dreaming though.
It'll be the Cleveland Cascade (sponsored by the dish soap) or something else lame but broadly marketable.

I kind of like Cleveland Tough
Cleveland Workhorse isn't bad but I think I would go with Workhorses
What about the Cleveland Wraith? A take off of the Ring Wraith from Lord of the rings. Those things are bad!

I don't know how all the trademark stuff works and what not, but the Toledo hockey team is called the Walleye.

I'm not a fisherman, but guys I know who are have told me that Walleye are about the weakest fighting fish once they get hooked. One guy told me they pretty much just roll onto their side and say "okay, you got me". Not exactly what I had in mind for my team's image ...

Walleyes are not great fighters after being hooked, but they are hard to hook. Also, they eat other fish, so they are a predator.
Ut oh..........the damn perch are going to protest.

The reality of this affair does have movie written on it. You sound like Big Bobber in the Booth all over again. Good on you!
Now we need a manager for the COVID Crew. Maybe the Cleveland Virus!

The Cleveland Cascade(s)?
Cascade Park is in Elyria and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park has waterfalls as well.

If you consider hitting the baseball to be a violent act, then this year it's the Cleveland Pacifists.

How about the Cleveland Offenders with the Chief Wahoo logo and "You Offend Me" written under it. I just bought a tee shirt with that.

I wouldn’t mind white caps at all, though I doubt anybody will choose anything with “white” in it

Yeah, because after 6 months of brutal winter, the name we really want for our team that plays the summer game is "Blizzard".
Not just no ... hell no.

I still prefer Blue Sox.
Not a fan of stuff that sounds like a MLS team

Not a fan of Zombies. Hate how nowadays Zombies is the copout easy way to go for things. I don't think it will have staying power. Wolves or Werewolves? Definitely not Teen Wolves  Though I did like that movie

Seems too wannabe to me

Some of my thoughts have leaned that way because I want something unique but cool. Those tend tp sound MLS-ish but I think will grow on us over time. Kinda like the Jazz of Magic in the NBA

I like the terminators a lot
I am okay with monarchs, i think that could be cool if done right but what are the odds that it will be done right?

One team I coached in baseball was named the "Shockers".
I am starting to like
The Cleveland White Caps even more.
Of course there are the White Sox and Red Sox. So I like The White Caps.
Obvious nickname:
"The Caps"
So yes I like it.

The Cleveland Corporate Sellouts
The Cleveland Red...skinsFor the music/rock and roll theme: The Cleveland Clash The Cleveland Crescendo From Ohio Symbology they could go: link Black Racers Bullfrogs White-tails For lake/water "monsters": Cleveland Kelpie link ...Cagefighters could be a Stipe Miocic nod.

Maybe Cleveland Thunderbirds to give a nod to Native Americans without actually depicting Native Americans. Could use a red lightning bolt as the symbol. In war paint, red represented strength, success, and energy. A zig-zag line/lightning was believed to grant a warrior power and speed. link
