Ken Boswell - 4 - 1969-1972
Doug Flynn - 4 - 1978-1981
Luis Castillo - 4 - 2007-2010
Ron Hunt - 3 - 1964-1964, 1966
Gregg Jefferies - 3 -1989-1991
Jeff Kent - 3 - 1993-1995
Edgardo Alfonzo - 3 - 1999-2001

While no Met has been the primary Second Baseman for more than 5 seasons (Wally nearly got 6, but for that pesky platoon in 1987), this has been a position of relative stability despite having roughly the same number of regulars as the other infield positions.  The position has been held for 3 years by 9 different players.  33 of the first 49 full seasons have been manned by players that have had hold of the positions for at least three years.
