As concerns from Darryl Strawberry grow about the possible drug problem for his former teammate Dwight Gooden, a familiar club is willing to step in to help.
The Yankees, with whom Gooden won two World Series championships in 1996 and 2000 would pay for a rehab stint should Gooden attend as his wellbeing spirals over a cocaine problem many believe is out of control.
"The Yankees saw the story," Strawberry said, via the New York Daily News,"and called me and said, 'What can we do to help?' A lot of individuals have reached out to me too, but for the Yankees to show that type of support to Doc, I'm very grateful to them for that.
