FOCO released a new bobblehead of Los Angeles Dodgers rookie Gavin Stone, which is limited in quantity and will not be restocked once it sells out.
The Stone bobblehead is the latest in the rookie series by FOCO, which previously launched versions for James Outman and Miguel Vargas. Outman’s bobblehead sold out, but some still remain available of Vargas.
Like the previous Dodgers bobbleheads for the rookie teammates, Stone is set atop a silver and blue base with a “Welcome To The Show” backplate. The base additionally features Stone’s full name, jersey number and Dodgers signature logo.
Stone is positioned in a throwing motion while wearing the home Dodgers uniform.
Due to a rash of injuries in the starting rotation, Stone was called up for his MLB debut last month. The rookie right-hander faced the Philadelphia Phillies and later returned from Triple-A Oklahoma City for assignments against the Atlanta Braves and Tampa Bay Rays.
Stone struggled in those outings as he allowed a combined 17 runs (16 earned) on 23 hits and seven walks in just 10 innings pitched. As a result, Stone was optioned back to Oklahoma City to continue developing, though the Dodgers remain confident in the rookie.
“I still stand by it was a good opportunity for him and good experience,” manager Dave Roberts said of Stone’s stint with the Dodgers.
“So just to kind of go down there and work on commanding the fastball. I think in the Minor Leagues, you have a lot more margin for mistakes and get away with them. And also when he does get two strikes, to be able to put hitters away with the breaking ball and changeup.”
