Question Roberto Alomar

Is he the greatest player ever to play for 5 different teams in a 13 year period?

I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

How many others fit those specific parameters?

Not sure - that's why I am asking.

That's sort of like setting up the criteria to ask whether Alomar was the greatest player ever to have 7 triples in a season 4 years before the final 2 digits of his OPS were repeated numbers.

And, just off the top of my head, I'll say no.

Gary Sheffield fits that criteria.

Think it could be A-Rod some day?

Depending on where you want to mark the 13 years, Rickey Henderson?

Code:
Sheffield 1992-2004 612 RCAA Robinson 1962-1974 596 RCAA Henderson 1985-1997 515 RCAA Allen 1965-1977 450 RCAA Alomar 1990-2002 329 RCAA

A-Rod from 1996-2006 has played for 3 teams (Mariners, Rangers, Yankees) and racked up 567 RCAA
So if he plays for a different team in 2007 and another team in 2008 (not likely) and is able to get 56 RCAA (very likely), he'll move into 1st place in this slightly ridiculous stat
