The Cardinals only have one former Mets in their system in Miguel Socolovich.
Miguel was originally signed by the Red Sox in 2004 and was traded almost exactly 4 years later to the Chicago White Sox for former Met David Aaardsma. In 2011 he signed with the Orioles and was later selected off waivers by the Cubs before signing with the Mets in 2013. This past November he signed with the Cardinals. The right hander has had limited play time in majors back in 2012 where he made 6 appearances with the Orioles and then 6 with the Cubs. He never factored too much into the Mets plan.
This series of articles will take us across every organization in baseball and look for former Mets in the majors and minors to see how they are doing, leading up to a “Former Mets Team” to see how the current Mets stack up with pieces we have all over the place. I am still looking for Mets team members on the Pirates, Rangers, White Sox and Tigers. If you know any, please let me know!
