Angels Announce 2012 Promotional Schedule, Pujols Gets A Bobblehead


The Anaheim Angels released their 2012 promotional schedule today and it includes two bobbleheads. Way back on December 7, I mentioned that the Angels released their promotional schedule to their season ticket holders, and it included a Mark Trumbo bobblehead on April 17. Well now they've changed  Trumbo to Albert Pujols. From the moment they signed Albert, I had a feeling they'd do this. I love the idea and I can't wait to get one. 


The other bobblehead  the Angels are giving away is Peter Bourjos on May 16. Bourjos was the winner of the bobblehead fan voting, getting 56% of the vote. He was going up against Howie Kendrick(39%) and Jordan Walden(3%).


Here is the official press release :

The Angels Wednesday announced the release of the 2012 promotional schedule which begins with a matchup vs. the Kansas City Royals on Opening Day, April 6th. The schedule features 48 dates throughout the season, including popular events such as Big Bang Fridays and Family Sundays. Highlights on the schedule include:

  1. Hmmm...interesting Pujols bobblehead replaced Trumbo. I wonder if that is sign that the Angels are considering Trumbo might not be a Angel for all of 2012?

  2. Anon - Could be. They do have a few guys that can play the position. Trumbo could probably play some third base too.Pujols can also DH, so I guess they have some options with both players.

  3. Trumbo is really bad (at least on offense .299 obp), and any position he plays is going to be fill-in. I just can't believe they have him slotted as their DH over Abreu. Abreu can't play the field but Trumbo can play both 3 and 5 positions, so seeing him as a DH when he loses value as one ( and can't hit) versus Abreu (who can hit but can't field) is bizarre for the Angels.
    On the Pujols bobble head, I was intriqued that they gave him a bobble head his first year, yes he is still the best single player in the game, however, he just signed this off season, has Jered Weaver ever gotten one?

    1. And Alberto Callaspo is better at defense than Trumbo as well.

    2. Anon - Yes, Jared Weaver has gotten a bobblehead. Barbie hair!

    3. Hahaha, Barbie hair for the loss. Wow I didn't even know he's been in baseball for 4 years yet. Since he has gotten one, it only makes sense to do Pujols, anything but another gnome bobble head.

    1. Jasmin - Agreed! I don't care if he is an Angel. He's the best player in the game.
