Common mistake. I made my name when I was like 12, and I was playing as the Astros in one of my first Baseball Mogul games, and I never changed it, so it stuck.
New York Mets
Los Angeles Dodgers
Some sort of combination of the two
He's not going to the Hall of Fame.

You know... Dee could change it, if you asked.

I'd be so pissed if he went in as a Dodger...

Even if he wanted to?

Who voted "He's not going to the Hall of Fame"?
Come on! He's definetely in the top 5 greatest catchers of all time and (arguably) could even be in the top 3 (behind Bench and Berra, maybe Carter)

The guy was a Met for as long as I can remember, until I was 10 1/2. I grew up watching him play. He was my favorite player. How could he go in as a Dodger?

Because what he wants has nothing to do with the perception of a kid in New York.
He had his best seasons as a Dodger. The Dodgers drafted him in the 62nd round and didn't give up on him. The Dodgers gave him the chance to become a star. He became a star as a Dodger. He has family ties to the Dodgers. There are many reasons why he'd want to go in as a Dodger.
Personally, when I think of him, I remember him as a Dodger, but that's because when he was on the Dodgers, I was the age you were when he was on the Mets. That's the perception you have, but that has nothing at all to do with what he wants.
And you really shouldn't let the team that a baseball player wants to represent in the Hall of Fame "piss you off."

He spent like the same amount of time basically with both teams but had a better run as a Dodger which is probably what he'll go in as.
Master of Ale!
I had originally voted for "No Team", but I'm starting to shift towards the Dodgers. I don't think he ASKED to be moved out of LA, so I don't see why he would have an issue going in as a Dodger. He was traded...it happens...he doesn't really strike me as a guy who's going to hold a grudge. And, yeah, the Dodgers gave him a shot, and let him get his chance.

When I was Metsguy234's age, Piazza was in second grade, but I don't think of him as a second grader.
