Carl Everett
Carl Edward Everett III (born June 3, 1971) is an American former Major League Baseball outfielder. A switch hitter, he played for eight teams over the course of a 14-year career. He was a member of the Chicago White Sox when they won the 2005 World Series. He threw right-handed and played all outfield positions, and occasionally designated hitter.
Everett attended Hillsborough High School in Tampa, Florida, and was a letterman in football, baseball, and track. In football, he garnered 948 rushing yards as a senior. He ran the 100 meters in 10.5 seconds.
The New York Yankees selected Everett with the 10th overall pick in the 1990 Major League Baseball (MLB) draft. After two minor league seasons, he was selected by the Florida Marlins in the 1992 MLB expansion draft. He made his major league debut with the Marlins on July 1, 1993.
Everett was traded to the New York Mets after the 1994 season for Quilvio Veras. He had his first full season in 1997. He hit .248 with a .420 slugging percentage in 142 game.
After the 1997 season, Everett was traded to the Houston Astros for John Hudek. He hit .325 with 27 stolen bases in 1999. His .571 slugging percentage was in the top 10 in the league.
After being traded on December 14, 1999, to the Boston Red Sox for minor leaguers Adam Everett and Greg Miller, Everett had a career high 34 home runs in 2000. In July, Everett was suspended for 10 days for bumping into umpire Ron Kulpa. The following August, Everett was fined for grabbing his crotch while yelling at Seattle Mariners pitcher Jamie Moyer after hitting a home run. He struggled in 2001, with a shoulder injury hampering his performance, and ongoing controversy with the Boston media serving as a distraction to the team.[citation needed] One of the few bright spots for Everett that season came on September 2, 2001, when Everett came into the game as a pinch hitter and broke up a potential perfect game by Mike Mussina of the New York Yankees. Mussina had retired the first 26 Boston Red Sox and gotten two strikes on Everett before he hit a soft single to left field. Everett was suspended later in September for arriving late to a team workout.
On December 12, 2001, Everett was traded to the Texas Rangers for Darren Oliver. His nine home runs in April 2003 matched a team record, shared with Iván Rodríguez (2000), Alex Rodriguez (2002) and later Ian Kinsler (2007), Josh Hamilton (2012), and Joey Gallo (2019).
Everett was traded to the Chicago White Sox during the 2003 season for Frank Francisco, Josh Rupe and Anthony Webster. He signed as a free agent with the Montreal Expos for the 2004 season, but was traded back to the White Sox on July 18, 2004, for Gary Majewski and Jon Rauch.
