The NL East Four-Timers Club

I count fourteen players who've been Mets plus at least three other NL East variations in their careers. Read about them here if you like.

This is some awesome research. Worth reading.

Yeah, this is neat. I kind of love guys who have played for a lot of teams. I thought about trying to get a Matt Stairs card from each of his teams, but I think two of them never made it to cardboard. (Edwin Jackson and Octavio Dotel tied at 13, by the way, and Jackson's only 34, so he'll have the record alone at some point.)

Just off the top of my head and without looking anything up, I'd guess that the Met who played for the most teams would be between Dotel, Todd Zeile and LaTroy Hawkins, based on those card threads I used to make. Those three always came up.
