A Mets Trivia Question

[MFS62]

Since 1990, David Wright probably has the highest career lifetime major league BA of any player who was originally drafted/signed by the Mets. Minumum 700 career ML at bats.

Who has the second highest?

I think I know the answer and it is astounding.

We are dealing with probabilities on this one.

I like the Rey answer because it would seem so improbable it must be right.

But I think I found the answer by accident when I was looking at some of the early Tampa Bay teams during the Series.
It could be (shudder):
