It's time to meet your 2013 Rockies bobbleheads

DAY 10

I am #LilCarGo. I am an outfielder. I  am a slugger -- a Silver Slugger. It takes a lot of work to play as well as I do in the outfield and I try to get better every day. Look:

The gym should be the first place any athlete visits in the morning, and the last place they see at night.

This guy knows what I mean. He's handsome too. Wait a minute, he looks familiar...

DAY 9

What's up, y'all? It's #LilHelton here showing you what its like to be a power hitter. I hit 49 home runs in 2001. I've driven in more than 1,300 runs. Check it out:

Look, when I was drafted by Colorado, we didn't have smartphones or Instagram.

Kids today love pulling pranks and posting them on Tumblr, don't they?

DAY 8

Hey guys, it's me #LilEllis. You may remember my big bro who took Coors Field  by storm from 1994-98? He stole, he hit for power (compiling more than 30 homers and 30 steals in '96) and he was loved by fans. I'm taking over the Rockies tumblr and went for a tour around my Blake Street stomping grounds. Check it out:

Only thing more beastly is the man behind the wheel:

DAY 7

Wednesday was my day to take over the team's tumblr account, so I got into what #LilTulo does best -- pulling pranks! The No.1 victim was the Dinger Van, and I got all the boys involved:

Not too hard, though:

DAY 6

It's #LilWalker here. I took over the Rockies tumblr on Tuesday and handled a pretty tough question for the people of my country:

Getting ready to head out to a formal event, wearing my nicest clothes, eh. Should I wear dark or light denim? #CanadianTuxedo

DAY 5

Suns out, gloves out. It's me, #LilWeiss, and I took over the Rockies social media on Monday. You may remember my big bro Walt? He manned shortstop at Coors Field from 1994-97 and never let much by him. The defensive wizard also showed some pop in that light Colorado air, tallying a career-high eight dingers and 48 RBIs in 1996. Walt is currently the manager of the Rockies, so I am the bobblehead man in charge. Here's how I spent my takeover day:

Practicing my call to the 'pen. Hopefully won't have to do this too many times once the season starts:

 


 

As manager, meetings will now be a daily occurrence. Anybody got a smaller writing utensil?

 

 

The boys are back in town:

DAY 4

I know the name #LilBigCat sounds contradictory, but there's no way you can describe my big brother, Andres Galarraga, other than Big Cat. He was a big guy but he had the reflexes of a cat, just like I do. Big Big Cat made sure the Rockies wasted no time in producing a batting champion -- his .370 average in 1993, our first season, was the highest average by a right-handed hitter in over 50 years! Everyone also loved him for his big smile, which I've got too, though it's lil'er of course. Here's how I spent my St. Patrick's Day:

Losing my head a bit in the excitement of St. Paddy's Day:

DAY 3

Blake Street Bombers' member reporting for duty ... Well, maybe not me, but my big brother Dante Bichette was part of that team of dangerous Rockies hitters in the '90s. In fact, Big Dante almost won the Triple Crown in '95 -- leadng the NL with 40 homers and 128 RBIs. His .340 average was third to Mike Piazza and Tony Gwynn. But enough of that, today is #LilDante's day and here's how I spent my Saturday down in Scottsdale.

Woke up in the morning and I knew I was right:

 


 

Sorry big bro, but you know today is my day:

 


 

Didn't you hear? Mullets are back in:

DAY 2

¡Hola amigos! It's me, tu bobble-cabeza favorito, #LilVinny. You already know my big brother Vinny Castilla. Soy muy proud de mi hermano. Él es taller, but I'm más guapo. #GrandeVinny hit más than 40 home runs en tres años (y won tres Silver Slugger Awards), pero today #LilVinny va a take over Coors Field and the Rockies' Twitter. ¡Olé!

My big hermano Vinny's entrance song was "El Matador" by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs,
pero yo soy el Mini Matador. Wilin "El Baby Bull" Rosario can't hide from me forever.

Uno de los perks del Mini Matador is mi parking space. ¿Te gustas mi carro rojo?

¿No es caliente enough for you? Check out mi motocicleta bonita.

Vinny

¡Viva México! ¡Viva Denver! ¡Vivan los Rockies!

DAY 1

What's up everybody. This is #LilLilEY. They call me that because my big bro Eric Young Jr. is a lil'er version of the original Eric Young (Big EY) and I'm even lil'er. You probably know Big EY hit a leadoff home run in the first Rockies home game ever. That was at Mile High Stadium, so to kick off this bobblehead takeover thing, I figured I'd stop by that park's former spot. On the way I stopped to scoff at a stop sign thinking it could tell me to stop. When Big EY, EY Jr. or I are on the basepaths, we don't stop anywhere until we've touched home! I also included a few of my tweets from the takeover -- one during my media appearance and another while watching a pretty historic moment in Rockies history ...

I'm ready for my close-up, Rockies fans:

 

 

And remember I told you about big Eric's Opening Day home run? Well, I try to watch it at least once a day:
