2008 Snappers Bobbleheads Are ...

[RickieWeeksJr]

All Sundays -

 

June 1 - Yovani Gallardo

July 20 - Brian Duensing

August 3 - Rickie Weeks

 

Those of you keeping score will realize that the Brewers are giving out the Ryan Braun bobbles on the same day of the Gallardo bobblehead. Tough break for collectors.

[billyhallfan]

yes, i was hoping they would do a duensing...

[BrewCrewForever]

I would have loved to get Yo, but I will be attending the Brewers game for Braun.

[RickieWeeksJr]

Yeah ... I'm gonna have to call my brothers or dad and divide and conquer on June 1. I'll probably go to Beloit and send somebody to Milwaukee.

[billyhallfan]

well, just my two cents, go to beloit, it is easier to find 2 out of 45,000 bobbles on ebay than 1 out of 500.

That is a good point, but I don't covet the minor league bobbles as much as I do the MLB ones.

 

[billyhallfan]

yes, but other people do, and on febuary 22nd of 2011 you could probably sell your Gallardo and make some solid coin if you don't want it...

[RickieWeeksJr]

BHF, were you being sarcastic about Duensing? I sort of know who he is but I don't pay much attention to the minors. I don't really know what he's been up to. Does he have a bright future (would it be worth getting his bobble)?

[Hart Of Milwaukee]

Duensing is a fairly decent prospect, he went 15-6 last year between AA and AAA with a 3.07 Era. He is the Twins #8 prospect acording to BA (pre-Santana trade), and he started the Gold medal winning game in the IBAF World Cup. From what I've heard he doesn't over power hitters and probably projects as a middle of the rotation guy. I don't think he will be a star, but if there is one thing that Twins organization can do, it is develop pitchers.

[billyhallfan]

no i wasn't, i like him, he'll be lucky to have a career as a fifth starter, but he was nice to me in beloit, and he is an american hero now, for those who follow baseball anyway...

 

well, that might be a stretch, hopefully next year they will do a Benson and Robertson

[zachlaka]

I like the choices I probably will only go to the Weeks and Gallardo bobbles no real interest in any of the twins.

 

My friend will go get Braun for me since he lives in Milwaukee.

American Hero? Care to explain?
