An 8-year gap's pretty big, but I suspect it's not the record. Other than player-to-manager absences like Tom Lasorda or Sparky Anderson and infamous signing issues like Maury Wills, what active players spent several years between cards? Is there one we can consider this "record holder?"

14 years apart.
