New York Mets third baseman David Wright is the majors' only captain on the eve of the season, and it's unclear if he will ever play again. The 35-year-old Wright was named the fourth captain in Mets history in 2013, joining Keith Hernandez, Gary Carter and John Franco. But the list of baseball captains still includes some of the biggest names in the history of the sport. The list of baseball captains underscores not only the special players to hold the title, but also the unique situations that led to their leadership position. "Having a team captain could conceivably in some ways change the relationship between the manager and the coaches and the rest of the team," Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said.
