Problemo?
That's easy. It's Joel Youngblood who got a hit for both the Mets and the Expos on Aug. 4, 1982.

What happened!? Youngblood traded between games?

For a lead role in a cage
He was actually traded in the 4th inning of the Mets @ Cubs game. He was taken out of the lineup, flown to Philly, where he came into the Expo @ Phillies game. In the first game he got the hit off Ferguson Jenkins and in the second he got the hit off Steve Carlton (both future HoF pitchers).
He also played every position but pitcher in his career.

Ok, then my second guess is Charlie Ward. But...he was never drafted in the NFL...right? Teams refused to draft him in the first round..which is all he would go for. Everything I'm reading says he went undrafted.
But he was drafted twice in baseball, Yankees and Brewers..its got to be him.
Ahhh, drafted 3 times by sports teams....so the Knicks are the 3rd. Woohoo! I got it!

Well, I will do #8 then...let's continue the theme:
#8: I am a Heisman winner as well...and I took over for a Heisman winner in the NFL...and my cousin is vying for a starting spot in the Boston rotation this year.

Ty Detmer, QB, 1990 Heisman winner. The former Heisman winner he took over for was Vinny Testaverde, and he's the cousin of Clay Buchholz.
