Poison the League: The "The Mets are Everywhere" Quiz

[batmagadanleadoff]

In the bad old days before 1969 happened, the pundits and scribes used to quip that the Mets could improve by making lotsa trades, any trades, really. The gag was that soon enough, the Mets players would be spread all over the league, and the Mets, having weakened the competition with all of those trades, would then have a better chance of winning games. That was the poison the league theory.

Which brings us to this quiz, which is probably gonna go to waste what with this being a holiday weekend and all.

47 Mets (current or not) played in at least one MLB game this season for a team other than the Mets. Name them. One player per post.
