Joe Maddon now comes in gnome form

The Rays announced their promotional schedule on Saturday, and one of the highlights this season is a bobblehead of Joe Maddon as a gnome.

So how does the Rays skipper feel about reaching the point of gnome-dom in his career?

@raysjoemaddon on the promo: "It's somewhat overwhelming to be charecterized in gnome-dom ... I'm pleased, I'm honored, I'm humbled.'' #Rays

More Maddon: "And hopefully I won't scare too many kids." #Rays

Tho, #Rays Maddon said, a "distant second" to ZImBear: "I'll never be able to approach Zim's overall scariness."
