Gert T 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 I was at the Diamondbacks-Reds game tonight, and I saw a sweet promotion. If you're are one of the first 20,000 fans into the stadium you can get an "A-Team" poster consisting of: Adam Dunn Austin Kearns Aaron Boone Hopefully for full effect Miley gives Dunn the night off!

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Its not THAT bad. Dunn and Kearn still have a very bright future with the Reds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Yeah, but with Kearns out for the year it adds to it. Didn't the Phillies have Scott Rolen bobblehead night after he was gone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gert T 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Yeah, but if the Reds are as "cost efficient" in the next 2-3 years as they are now it is not totally unlikely one of the two will be gone as well. Don't know about Rolen, but the Marlins had about 30,000 Dempster bobbleheads after he was traded to the Reds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the max 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 The Marlins had Jeff Conine bobblehead night this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 That was under the classic Marlin series. It sounds strange, but it's a good way to sell seats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not totally sure, but I don't think so. I might be wrong. However, we did have Scott Rolen T-Shirt day a few years ago when Francona was the manager. He chose that day to give Rolen a rest and didn't start him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve J. Rogers 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Bob Wickman was sent from the Brewers to the Indians (If I recall correctly) a few years back and it was about a week before Bob Wickman poster night BTW this would be worse than any promotions, a few days before the Roberto Alomar trade the Mets put out the latest edition of their program and you guessed it, Roberto Alomar graced the cover. Now the next edition of the program wouldn't be produced untill early August so they were faced with the prospect of an entire month of that. Thankfully it was changed and the next homestand the cover was changed to Ty Wiggington Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Yeah, Jeff Conine is STILL Mr. Marlin, so it makes perfect sense for them to have that promotion. I hope he retires for Florida, because he made his career there. (All Star Game MVP, World Series) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swift Terror 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2003 Adam Dunn is becoming known as "The Windmill" around these parts--he is batting around .165. Maybe he'll come around, who knows. The A-Team concept is good, now if only Dunn starts to play like an 'A' player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DerangedHermit 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2003 Thankfully it was changed and the next homestand the cover was changed to Ty Wigginton Does anybody else like Ty Wigginton? The guy's frickin awesome and he plays with so much energy. I feel sorry for the catcher (except Piazza, 5 RBI baby!) YAY, Jose Reyes is a .300 hitter.
