A. ARod, obviously. Torii Hunter? I would say Tejada but he probably needed one more year in Houston. Aramis will get it this year if he had enough in Pittsburgh to start his career.

I think Henderson only played for 2 teams longer than 2 years.

Yeah, just looked him up. I figured he only needed 2.5/3 to get to 500, but he never played that long outside of yanks and oak.GOONx19;1736752 wrote:I think Henderson only played for 2 teams longer than 2 years.

I'd guess Roberto Alomar for B.

Aramis Ramirez had 500 with Cubs and is close with the Brewers. I don't know if he made it with the Pirates.Laley23;1736754 wrote:Aramis?

Arod is one....Aramis is a no.
Rickey is not answer B
Alomar is not B but is the best incorrect guess. Had 497 and 495 with 2 teams and over 500 with 2

If Thome qualified, I guess him for C, fewest. Probably a season away in Philly and Chicago though.

Thome only did it with the Indians and does have more career hits than the player I came up with.

Answers to Part B and C they all overlapped careers pretty good and all had very long careers. One I consider one of the most underrated players of all-time.

Jermaine Dye was the last person I checked....he did not get to 500 in Oakland
the answer has considerably more hits than Dye but a little less than Thome....way more similar to Thome, kind of a Thome a generation before
