Looks like this may be 1997 Mets.

Pic 1: dominant sig - Rey Ordonez
Pic 3: Rick Reed (bottom below Franco)
Pic 4: Bernard Gilkey, Butch Huskey, Franco
Pic 5: Dave Mlicki, ?
Sweet spot: Carlos Baerga (i think)
Pic 7: Todd Hundley?, Juan Acevedo, Brian McRae, ??

#42 above John Franco, is Butch Huskey.

I agree with the above that Carlos Baerga is on the sweet spot.

Below Mlicki is Rich Becker.

Agree on Baerga (positive that's him) and Hundley (like 90% sure?), though he is the bottom signature in Pic 7.

The signature above Acevedo is Ryan Thompson.

1998 was the only year Becker was with the Mets, and he was there only through about mid-June of that year. Acevedo was with St. Louis by '98, and Thompson was in Japan. It's possible the ball was added to over the course of a couple years, which would explain the different pen types and different levels of toning from signature to signature.
