They should put the statue out in the cove, tbh. If someone hits it with a dinger, it should light up like the Marlins dinger machine to honor his new team.

Or if someone hits one into the cove Barrold's smiling head emerges from the depths to show his approval.

They've said on air before straight up that the original hank was loving terrified of all the noise in Miller Park so they found him a home because it was cruel to make him go to ballgames. They've been using a different dog ever since.
