  1. As the stories and stats have been reviewed over the course of the past week, the case for Straw’s number being retired becomes more obvious.

    TWENTY YEARS after he last put on a Mets uniform, he’s STILL the team’s all-time leader in HRs, RBIs, runs, walks, and extra-base hits.

    No, he’s not in THE HoF, and yes, he could’ve done so much more, but even the catcher who IS assumed to be bound for Cooperstown sits #2 to Strawberry in all of those categories as well as many of the derived stats such as adjusted OPS+, WAR, etc.

    Retiring Gooden’s number is more debatable, but retiring Straw’s should be a no-brainer.
