Ken Brett, I think.

I just looked it up. Ken Brett played for 10 teams. I'm changing my answer to:
Q: Who holds the record for most teams played for?
-- Tim Heilman
A: The record for most clubs played for is 12, held by Deacon McGuire and Mike Morgan. By playing an impressive 26 seasons in the bigs, McGuire actually managed to squeeze a nine-year stint with the Senators and a four-year stint with New York into his storied catching career. In his final four seasons, however, he appeared in a total of only 11 games while playing for four different clubs. The franchises he played for over his career were:
Toledo Blue Stockings 1884
Detroit Wolverines 1885
Philadelphia Phillies 1986-88
Detroit Wolverines 1888
Rochester Hop Bitters 1890
Washington Senators 1891-99
Brooklyn Dodgers 1899-1901
Detroit Tigers1902-03
New York Highlanders/Yankees 1904-07
Boston Pilgrims 1907-08
Cleveland Indians 1908, 10
Detroit Tigers 1912
Originally drafted fourth overall, journeyman pitcher Mike Morgan has parlayed his 23-year+ career into an unsightly 185 losses, to go along with only 139 wins. The teams he has played for are:
Oakland Athletics 1978-79
New York Yankees 1982
Toronto Blue Jays 1983
Seattle Mariners 1985-87
Baltimore Orioles 1988
Los Angeles Dodgers 1989-91
Chicago Cubs 1992-95
St. Louis Cardinals 1995-96
Cincinnati Reds 1996-97
Minnesota Twins 1998
Chicago Cubs 1998
Texas Rangers 1999
Arizona Diamondbacks 2000-
