Minutiae Trivia For the Day

I don't get many visitors on Sunday's, but just to have some fresh material up on site...

David Wright currently leads the NL in RBI. He'd be trying to become the 2nd Met to lead the NL in RBI, joining hitting coach Howard Johnson (1991).

By my count, 12 others, who played for the Mets at some point in their careers, have led their league in RBI (8 NL, 4 AL).

Originally, I had hints listed...no one posted a guess in the comments section, so the answers are now listed below the hints.
