Which players will be featured as bobbleheads?
Williams, who appeared in the AllStar Game for the first time last year, has delivered three straight monster seasons, including a performance in the abbreviated 2020 season that netted him National League rookie of the year. Last year, he struck out 96 batters in nearly 61 innings, featuring a changeup regarded as one of the best pitches in baseball. He transitioned to the team’s closer role once the club traded Josh Hader.
Tellez, whom the Brewers acquired during the 2021 season, has evolved into one of the team’s most popular players. The burly left-handed slugger socked 35 home runs last year to lead the team and logged an OPS of .767, the top mark among returning qualified players.
Contreras, acquired in an offseason trade from the Atlanta Braves, will serve as the team’s primary catcher. He was also an all-star last year at 24 years old, posting an OPS of .860.
Several of the Brewers’ other top players, namely Corbin Burnes, Willy Adames, Brandon Woodruff and Freddy Peralta, were featured as bobbleheads last year.
