We're past the halfway point of bobblehead season. Some teams front-loaded their calendars. Others saved the heavy hitters for the playoff run. And a few? They're already done.
Here's every MLB team, what's still coming, and the one bobblehead we'd prioritize if we could only attend one more game per team this season.
Teams With Bobbleheads Remaining
Los Angeles Angels
Our Pick: Jo Adell Home Run Robbery — September 16
The Angels have three bobbleheads left (Mickey Mouse on 8/12, Zach Neto on 8/28), but the Jo Adell piece is the standout. Action-pose bobbleheads — mid-leap, arm over the wall — iconic moment. Most giveaways are static batting or pitching stances. This one captures a moment, and that's what makes it a shelf piece worth having.
Sacramento Athletics
Our Pick: Shea Langeliers — August 15
Langeliers is the face of whatever the A's are building in Sacramento. A young catcher with pop, emerging as the one guy fans can point to and say "that's ours." Mark Kotsay (8/28) is a nice managerial nod, but Langeliers is the present and future.
Toronto Blue Jays
Our Pick: Buck Martinez Legacy — August 29
Buck Martinez called Blue Jays games for over two decades. The man is Toronto baseball for an entire generation of fans. The Hello Kitty bobble (9/12) will have its audience, but the Buck Martinez Legacy piece is a tribute to the voice that narrated championships, heartbreaks, and everything in between.
Atlanta Braves
Our Pick: Javy López — August 12
The Braves are doing back-to-back legends that week — Javy López on the 12th and Andrés Galarraga on the 14th. Both are worthy. But López was the anchor behind the plate during the dynasty years, and for fans who grew up watching those '90s rotations, this is the one that connects.
St. Louis Cardinals
Our Pick: Joe & Jack Buck — August 7
A father-son double bobblehead. Joe Buck Sr. and Jack Buck, two voices that defined Cardinals baseball across generations. Double bobbleheads are uncommon enough on their own — one celebrating a broadcasting lineage is genuinely unique. The Yadier Molina Bobblecard on 9/12 is also worth noting for collectors tracking the bobblecard format.
Chicago Cubs
Our Pick: Sammy Sosa — September 13
This is the first Sammy Sosa item the Cubs have acknowledged in years. The complicated history, the distance, the eventual thaw — all of it makes this giveaway night feel like an event beyond the bobblehead itself. Harry Caray (8/30) is a legend, but the fan reaction to Sosa's return to the merchandise world will be something to witness.
Arizona Diamondbacks
Our Pick: Merrill Kelly — September 12
This is the only bobblehead left on the D-backs schedule. Kelly has been a steady, dependable arm for Arizona through the rebuild and into contention. Don't let this one pass.

Los Angeles Dodgers
Our Pick: Clayton Kershaw — August 14
Five bobbleheads remain and the Dodgers loaded up the back half of August (Muncy Game 7 HR on 8/10, Reggie Smith Legends on 8/15, Ohtani Starter on 8/22, Yamamoto Starter on 9/5). But the Kershaw bobblehead will carry emotional weight that transcends the plastic. A farewell to the franchise's greatest pitcher of the modern era. Whatever the attendance record is at Dodger Stadium, this night will test it.
San Francisco Giants
Our Pick: Jung Hoo Lee — August 30
The only bobblehead left for the Giants this season. Lee has been the centerpiece of San Francisco's outfield rebuild, and this is the only chance to grab his giveaway piece in 2026. Show up early.
Seattle Mariners
Our Pick: Bryan Woo — September 5
One bobblehead remaining. Woo has emerged as a key arm in the Mariners' rotation, and with just one shot left on the schedule, this is a plan-or-miss situation.
Miami Marlins
Our Pick: Dontrelle Willis Hall of Fame — September 13
Josh Beckett's Hall of Fame bobble (9/6) is a worthy companion piece, but Dontrelle Willis is one of those players whose delivery you can see without closing your eyes. The high leg kick, the joy on the mound — if any pitcher's bobblehead should capture motion, it's D-Train. A celebration of the most fun the Marlins have ever been.
New York Mets
Our Pick: Mr. Met at the Unisphere Light-Up Bobblehead — August 30
Four bobbleheads remain (Bo Bichette 8/17, Mrs. Met Tennis 9/5, Francisco Lindor 9/17), but the Mr. Met piece stands alone. It's a light-up bobblehead featuring Mr. Met at the Unisphere — an interactive piece with LED elements that goes beyond the standard giveaway format. The most creatively ambitious Mets bobblehead of the year.
Washington Nationals
Our Pick: James Wood — August 29
The only bobblehead left, and it's the right one to go out on. James Wood is the future of the Nationals lineup — power, speed, youth. This will be a collector piece in hindsight if Wood becomes what the projections say he can.
Baltimore Orioles
Our Pick: Pete Alonso — August 22
The only bobblehead remaining — and yes, Pete Alonso is on the Orioles now. If that sentence still catches you off guard, imagine what the bobblehead will look like on the shelf next to his Mets-era pieces. A new chapter, captured in plastic.
San Diego Padres
Our Pick: Jackson Merrill Robbery — August 24
Two bobbleheads left (Tatis City Connect on 9/8 is the other), but the Jackson Merrill piece immortalizes the catch — the one that went viral, the one that announced him as a legitimate star. Action-pose giveaways that capture a specific real moment are the bobbleheads people keep on their desks, not their closet shelves.
Philadelphia Phillies
Our Pick: Kyle Schwarber Bobble Figurine — August 21
Only one bobble left and its Kyle Schwarber, a Philadelphia legend. I'm not sure what a "bobble figurine" is but it looks like a classic take on the traditional bobblehead. Last shot for Phillies fans this season.
Pittsburgh Pirates
Our Pick: Roberto Clemente — September 15
The only bobblehead remaining, and it falls on Roberto Clemente Day. The timing is intentional. Clemente's legacy transcends baseball — humanitarian, pioneer, icon. This is the kind of giveaway that feels bigger than bobblehead night.
Texas Rangers
Our Pick: Nolan Ryan Bloody Lip — September 17
Five bobbleheads still on the schedule (Block Captain 8/21, BodyArmor Bath Dumping 9/6, Nathan Eovaldi Flying Ace 9/16, Wild West Rangers 9/19), but the Nolan Ryan Bloody Lip piece wins by a mile. It captures one of the most iconic moments in baseball history — Ryan on the mound, blood streaming from his lip, refusing to leave the game. If there's a single image that defines toughness in this sport, it's that one. In 1990 Ryan failed to cleanly field a one-hopper off the bat of Bo Jackson. It bounced off his glove, into Ryan’s face, before he casually threw Jackson out. Ryan resumed pitching - throwing seven scoreless innings - with blood dripping down his jersey. He got six stitches after the game. Earlier this year, the Rangers commemorated the same image with a blood stained Nolan Ryan Replica Jersey.
Tampa Bay Rays
Our Pick: Flappy Boi Bobble — August 15
The only one left. Flappy Boi started as a meme and became the unofficial mascot of Rays internet fandom. The fact that it graduated from Reddit to an actual stadium giveaway is a testament to what fan culture can build. This one's for the online community.
Cincinnati Reds
Our Pick: Elly De La Cruz City Connect 2.0 — September 5
Harry Potter Night (8/15) will draw its crowd, but Elly De La Cruz is the most electrifying player in baseball right now, and the City Connect treatment gives this one a visual identity that sets it apart from a standard player bobble. Speed, power, style — all of it rendered in the alternate uniform. This is the one. NO IMAGE YET 🗺️ View Reds Schedule →
Kansas City Royals
Our Pick: Salvador Perez City Connect — September 25
The only one left. Salvy is a franchise cornerstone — World Series MVP, franchise hits leader, the emotional center of Kansas City baseball. The City Connect uniform adds visual flair to what's already a meaningful tribute to the most beloved Royal of his generation.
Chicago White Sox
Our Pick: Shoeless Joe Jackson — August 9
The only bobblehead remaining, and it might be the most historically loaded giveaway on any team's schedule. Shoeless Joe Jackson — banned from baseball, debated for over a century, still one of the greatest hitters who ever lived. The story attached to it makes this a conversation piece that transcends collecting.
New York Yankees
Our Pick: George Costanza Calzone Bobblehead — August 27
Four bobbleheads remain (Cody Bellinger 8/21, Hello Kitty 8/22, Josh Hart 9/25), but the Seinfeld crossover is the one that breaks the internet. George Costanza, holding a calzone, in Yankees pinstripes. The intersection of New York baseball and New York television in one giveaway. Plus this is becoming an annual tradition, I bet there'll be another Seinfeld crossover next year. NO IMAGE YET 🗺️ View Yankees Schedule →
Teams With No Bobbleheads Remaining
Houston Astros
The Astros are done with bobbleheads for 2026, but Daikin Park still has giveaways on the schedule — replica jerseys, caps, and theme nights through September. Check the team page for what's still coming.

Colorado Rockies
No bobbleheads left at Coors Field this season. The Rockies have promotional nights and giveaways (hats, bags, shirts) still on the docket. Check back for 2027 announcements.
Detroit Tigers
The Tigers are through with bobbleheads in 2026, but Comerica Park has jersey nights, cap giveaways, and fan appreciation events still ahead. Next year's bobblehead slate should arrive in late winter.
Minnesota Twins
Target Field's bobblehead calendar is spent for the year. The Twins have hat nights, shirt giveaways, and theme events remaining. We'll post the 2027 lineup when it drops.
