Dwight Gooden’s No. 16 and Darryl Strawberry’s No. 18 will be retired by the New York Mets in separate pregame ceremonies next year honoring players who were keys to the team’s last World Series title in 1986.
“I was completely overwhelmed when I got the call,” Gooden said in a statement released by the team. “I want to say ‘thank you’ to the fans who supported me through the good times and bad times.”

I had some ups and downs, but in the end, I am proud of my time in New York.”
