Get ready, Dodgers fans—Saturday is shaping up to be a big day at Chavez Ravine. Not only are the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Atlanta Braves, but the first 40,000 fans through the gates will snag a limited-edition Blake Snell “Starter Series” bobblehead.
If you’ve been waiting for Snellzilla to make his return, this is the perfect warm-up. The bobblehead captures Snell mid-celebratory yell, matching the high-energy style of the “Starter Series.” And here’s a cool detail: the bases of all four bobbleheads in the series connect to spell out “2025 World Champion Starters,” with Snell’s taking the lead spot.
Dodger Stadium holds 56,000 fans, so those 40,000 bobbleheads will go fast. Hardcore collectors often line up hours before first pitch, so plan to arrive early if you want to add this one to your collection.
Speaking of Snell, he’s been working his way back from a shoulder injury with rehab starts in the minors, most recently for the Ontario Tower Buzzers and Oklahoma City Comets. According to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register, Saturday’s rehab start with the Tower Buzzers in Rancho Cucamonga is likely his last before rejoining the big league club. That return will create some tough roster decisions, especially in the starting rotation. Tyler Glasnow’s recent injury might buy the Dodgers a little breathing room, but names like Roki Sasaki and Emmet Sheehan are being floated as potential moves.
And don’t forget—this bobblehead is part of a bigger lineup. The “Starter Series” continues with Tyler Glasnow on June 6 against the Angels, Shohei Ohtani on August 22 versus the Pirates, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto on September 5 against the Nationals.
So, will you be at Dodger Stadium on Saturday to grab your Snell bobblehead and cheer on the boys in blue?
