Which bobbles will the Brewers do next season?

[jlau20]

I think it would be cool if they did some from the early 90's. Those weren't terrible teams, and it would be nice to get away from the '82 stuff.

 

I would definitely add Seitzer to my list of 90's Brewers I would like to see in bobblehead form.

 

I really don't see it happening though. Odds are it's going to be current players and more 80's players for a few years. I wouldn't be surprised though if they did do an actual player for Cervecero's day next year. If I had to bet I would also say it would be Sixto, Nieves, or Teddy. But who knows, isn't Gallardo from Mexico? That would probably be a possibility, since I think it would be a reasonable conclusion at this point that he'll be at the Major League level all year.

who is left from the 82 team?

[Warriors76]

Roy Howell and some others...no one very good. They could do a Yost player bobblehead.

[PeaveyFury]

Gallardo is from Fort Worth, Texas.

[brewdude15]

but he was born in Mexico....i think?

[PeaveyFury]

Yeah, I think he was born there too, but his 'hometown' is FW.

[Warriors76]

Doesn't matter where they're born. Nieves and Sixto aren't Mexican either...Cerveceros Day is for all of Hispanic baseball; most Hispanic players aren't Mexican.

Another neat idea -- esp. if Prince wins the NL HR crown -- would be to take Oglivie, Scott, Thomas and Fielder as HR champs, and do a series.

 

I think Tommy Harper circa 1970 (30-30 guy) would be a neat one as well.

If or maybe I should say when Braun wins ROY his bobble next year should have him holding the trophy.

Harper would be cool, one of the original Brewers.

thank you to whoever said quevedo bobbleass. best thing i've heard in months.

 

the only current brewer who deserves to have a bobble of himself at this point is braun, so how about a triptych of his swing (stance, extension, and follow-thorugh), and his ROY buddy listach stealing a base. i like the nieves idea, and i certainly don't love the sausage bobble idea, but that seems an odds on fifth. or - here's another cerveceros option - how about a jose hernandez circa 2002 to commemorate his combined all-star selection and shoulda been strikeout record?

 

there's also the all-international option: takahito nomura (japan), teddy higuera (mexico), dave nilsson (autralia), ricky bones/candy maldonado (puerto rico), matt stairs (canada)...

First year of our Milwaukee Brewers, who had the most starts....#8 Mike Hegan. My bobblehead vote is for Mike Hegan.

[snyttri]

I'd love to see a series of '57 Braves mini bobbles like the '82 Brewers but it might be too expensive to give away that many bobbles very often. Something to commemorate the 1901 Milwaukee Brewers who had Hall of Fame player-manager Jack Duffy would be nice some time; either a hat or a bobble.

[hart attack 2006]

It will be interesting to see if they do any more former Brewers at all...they have given out all of the franchise legends and now we are to the next tier of guys like Higuera, Vaughn, George Scott, Cirillo. Solid players, but maybe not good enough to do a bobblehead of. Obviously all of us on this forum will be all over any bobble they give out, but these might not create much interest from the general fanbase.
