Green Monday sale great chance to stuff stockings
That's what we thought. With the Green Monday sale extended through 11:59 p.m. ET on Tuesday at the MLB.com Shop and a chance to buy one item and get another at 50 percent off, the MLB.com Gift Guru has some advice on how to hang those stockings with care, meaning Major League Baseball stuff:
Memory Company combines artistic team-logo coloring and function with their Vintage Night Lights -- great for that young fan who wants to sleep with some light or as a little extra hallway visibility at night.
Giants fans have been loading up on the A&E Home Video 2012 World Series Champions DVD and BluRay. Fits in your average stocking, and you can let it play as the other presents are being opened.

Stuff one of the many types of knit caps in there or curl up the same kind of Authentic 39THIRTY BP Cap worn by players at Spring Training and during all batting practice sessions next season.
A David Wright Baseball Base Bobblehead, now that you know No. 5 is staying with the Mets. Or whatever bobblehead that fan doesn't have yet.
Lil Teammates, either that menacing hitter or that intense pitcher. You've seen these little guys. They do up the eye black like Bryce Harper. They're under $5 if you throw them in using that current Shop sale. Sit them on your desk, hang them from the rear-view mirror or sink them into icing on top of that birthday cake. You can either put these in the stocking or just hang them on a Christmas tree as an ornament.
