There is nobody who can question that Gary Carter was at his best when he was a Montreal Expo, but “The Kid” was still a solid player when he signed as the Mets Catcher. Carter went to four All-Star Games as a Met (though realistically he shouldn’t have made the last two) but finished 6th and 3rd respectively in MVP voting for his first two seasons as a Met. Carter would help the Mets win the 1986 World Series Championship and will always be remembered in the Big Apple.
The Mets honored Carter with a franchise Hall of Fame induction in 2001, and he was enshrined into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003.
