The Volquez Bobblehead looks Like This! What? No Thick Gold Chain?

Edinson Volquez SGA Bobblehead available now, as a Presale on eBay!

The Cincinnati Reds can’t be too pleased with the setback Edinson Volquez recently had in his rehab, as it looks like the right handed Reds starting pitcher will be on the DL past the All-Star Break. A consolation…and a pretty small one (about 7 inches high) is Edinson Volquez was the winner of the 2009 Reds Fans Vote Bobblehead that will be given out July 18th, 2009 to the first 30,000 fans thru the gates of Great American Ballpark.

We think the likeness is pretty good, but just wish they would have adorned a thick gold chain on this Voltron Bobble!

I plan on taking advantage of the projected great weather, by heading to Lansing , Michigan to take in a Minor League Baseball game at Oldsmobile Park where the Toronto Blue Jays minor league affiliate, Lansing Lugnuts will be playing host to the Cincinnati Reds minor league team – the Dayton Dragons!

It’s Carlos Zambrano Bobbleheadday on Saturday, May 16th, and so I just couldn’t pass up the chance to add a Big Z Bobble to my collection! I’m sure the wife will be just thrilled!

Coming off his most dominant victory of the season on Wednesday, in which he allowed only 1 hit through 8 innings of shut out baseball over the Houston Astros – Edinson Volquez has won the Cincinnati Reds Fans Choice Bobblehead.

We will post a picture of what the Voltron Bobblehead will look like at a later date. Wonder if the Volquez Bobblewill have some short dreads, and a thick gold chain?

Don’t matter - we are anxious to get our hands on one of the 30,000 Edinson Volquez bobbleheads they will be handing out at Great American Ballpark on July 18th - no matter what it looks like!
