Kodai Senga

千賀滉大
Bats: Left
Throws: Right
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 178 lbs.
Born: January 30, 1993 in Gamagori, Japan
Acquired: as a free agent, December 2022

 

Had a superb career in Japan, paving his way to apparently becoming the final touch to the Mets' dominant-looking but ultimately underperforming 2023 rotation.  The '23 debacle was not in any way Kodai's fault, though, as his rookie season was simply splendid.  His second campaign in New York was not nearly as successful, since he didn’t even appear until after the All-Star break, then came back triumphantly, and immediately returned to the injured list.   Mr. Senga is shown here on 2021 Topps NPB, and several more Japanese cards are featured below.

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 am still accepting donations, should you feel so moved.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
