TAMPA, Fla. -- The teenage son of former major league pitcher Dwight Gooden was arrested after he allegedly sold crack cocaine to undercover deputies, according to a newspaper report.
Dwight Gooden Jr., 17, was arrested Wednesday after he and 19-year-old Kendon Davis sold 2.4 grams crack cocaine to undercover deputies, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Lt. Rod Reder told the Tampa Tribune. The amount was valued at $200. He was charged with possession and delivery of crack cocaine.
After his arrest Gooden was taken to a juvenile detention center, Reder said.
The elder Gooden retired in 2001, ending his major league career with a 194-112 record and a 3.51 ERA.
He was suspended for 60 days in June 1994 for testing positive for cocaine while with the Mets. He tested positive for cocaine again while on suspension and was sidelined for the 1995 season.
He played 11 seasons with the New York Mets, becoming the youngest Cy Young Award winner in 1985 at age 20 and pitching for a World Series championship team a year later. In 1996, he pitched a no-hitter for the New York Yankees. He struck out 2,293 in 2,800 2-3 innings over his career.

It still makes me sad to think how Doc wasted his talent. He could have been one of the greatest pitchers of our time.

Canseco isn't white.
The other people had no talent.

cmon, there has to be a whole slew of white athletes who never realized the full potential of their talent.
