Only three nights?

That seems light. Casey Blake? That will bring the crowd out, who is running marketing these days? I wonder how thin they can make the giveaway blankets this year?

Kuo

Didn’t Kuo already have a bobblehead night?

Or was this simply made?

re:

Do we have a database of who on the roster already has had a bobblehead night or do we need to search ebay for each player on the roster?

If Bills gets the home opener

Will there be idiots that boo him because of the NLCS? I DREAD that.

re:

No, not in the beginning, but if he only lasts as long as did against the Phillies he will hear some big boo birds as walks to the dugout.
