David Wright has been the face of the franchise for quite some time now, and he certainly deserves it.
Since that promising 2006 season, Carlos Beltran, Carlos Delgado, Paul Lo Duca, Pedro Martinez, Tom Glavine, Jose Reyes and Cliff Floyd are just some of the many men to ditch New York for other teams. However, David Wright has stayed through all the losing. He has fought through injuries despite being out of the playoff race and has that true love for the game you love to see in a ball player.
One by one, David Wright has been knocking down nearly every record held by former Mets this season. While some can point to the fact that he has played with the team for the entirety of his career, nobody can deny that when healthy, he has produced greatly. This year has been arguably his best, and he is once again back to being a top-tier third baseman.
David's career is likely far from over, so he can start to move up this list as he continues to pile up the stats. By the end of his career, look for Wright to be near the top of the list, or even the best of all time. His stats don't lie, but he has meant more than what the numbers show to a team that has struggled greatly.
