Bill Denehy
William Francis Denehy
Batted: Both
Threw: Right
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 200 lbs.
Born: March 31, 1946 in Middletown, CT
Signed: 1965 by the Mets
Departed: traded to the Washington Senators with cash for Gil Hodges,
November 1967
Bill's greatest claim to fame was sharing a
rookie card with Tom Seaver. Unfortunately, I don't have one of those to show
you here (though I do now have a reprint). I do, however, have his card from
the following season (1968 Topps), which is worth slightly less than his rookie
card. Bill's second-greatest claim to fame is that he was traded with one
hundred thousand dollars to the Washington Senators for their manager, one
Mister Gil Hodges. Later on he played a few more years
in the Mets' minor-league system.

This is a list of the cards of this player
that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said
collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed
in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity
prior to my divestiture. The cards listed in white text are the ones
that still remained
until that final deal. Items listed in green I kept out of the deal,
just so I'd have something to display in my office and den. At the
bottom and listed in orange text are cards that I picked up after the dealing
was done, in order to maintain a certain continuity at
this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the top of the page, and
maybe in the autographs and game-used areas. If an orange card is
struck through, it has also departed the collection. I’m still
accepting donations, should you feel so moved. Contact me by
