Gift From Santa-na: Santana Bobblehead
Date: 2008
Southpaw Johan Santana brought powerhouse pitching to the Mets when he signed on for the 2008 season, the same year this bobblehead debuted. He established dominance on Opening Day with a win against the Florida Marlins and finished the season with an MLB-best 2.53 ERA. He is perhaps most remembered for his no-hitter on June 1, 2012, the first no-hitter in Mets history, which came in the franchise’s 50th anniversary season. The feat earned Johan the playful nickname “No-Han.”
