Carl Edward Everett III (born June 3, 1971) is an American former Major League Baseball outfielder.

Everett attended Hillsborough High School in Tampa, Florida, and was a letterman in football, baseball, and track.

After being traded on December 14, 1999, to the Boston Red Sox for minor leaguers Adam Everett and Greg Miller, he had a career high 34 home runs in 2000.

The following year, Everett was fined for grabbing his crotch while yelling at Seattle Mariners pitcher Jamie Moyer after hitting a home run.

He struggled in 2001, with a shoulder injury hampering his performance, and ongoing controversy with the Boston media serving as a distraction to the team.

Mussina had retired the first 26 Boston Red Sox and gotten two strikes on Everett before he hit a soft single to left center.

His nine home runs in April 2003 matched a team record that was shared (through 2008) with Iván Rodríguez (2000), Alex Rodriguez (2002), and Ian Kinsler (2007).

Everett was traded to the Chicago White Sox during the 2003 season for Frank Francisco, Josh Rupe and Anthony Webster.

He signed as a free agent with the Montreal Expos for the 2004 season, but was traded back to the White Sox on July 18, 2004, for Gary Majewski and Jon Rauch.

On December 14, 2005, Everett was signed by the Mariners off the free agent market to a one-year contract for the 2006 season, with a vesting option for 2007.

"[7] In 1997, Everett temporarily lost custody of two of his children when a worker at Shea Stadium noticed his five-year-old daughter covered in bruises.

The Everetts never admitted to abuse or neglect, and a settlement was reached where they could be reunited with their children after undergoing therapy and attending parenting classes.

[8] In April 2011, Everett was arrested at his home in Tampa on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and tampering with a witness.
