Dwight Gooden said in a radio interview Monday that he was reevaluating his relationship with Darryl Strawberry because of his former New York Mets teammates recent comments that the former All-Star pitcher was a complete junkie-addict.The Darryl thing hurt me a lot because I had just thought we reestablished our relationship, Gooden told The Joe Piscopo Show.I forgave him for a lot of stuff. I never threw him under the bus, never said anything about him publicly. For him to say that stuff, you have to draw a line somewhere and I guess do a better choice of picking friends.Gooden issued a statement later Monday in sharp criticism of Strawberry, calling out his former teammate for repeatedly making our differences personal, going back to our days with the Mets.I had hoped we could keep these differences between us, his statement read, while also vehemently denying Strawberrys allegations hes using cocaine. But Darryl could not manage to do that. I am sorry for his inability to show more character and strength. While I was there for him, he obviously was never there for me.Strawberry told ESPN Radio on Monday night that he is trying not to take Goodens verbal jabs personally, saying people in Goodens camp are pleased that someone finally stood up and said something about his issues and his struggles.I just felt like I needed to do this, Strawberry said in the interview. And regardless what anybody else thinks or they can call me whatever they want to call me. As long Ive known in my heart that I stepped up to do the right thing to help this man try to save his life, maybe just one day if he gets there and gets a recovery and realizes how good he is, he can come back and say thank you, you helped save my life. Strawberry said he is convinced Gooden has relapsed into the drug use that derailed his playing career.Hes very good at BSing, hes very good at blowing smoke up peoples behinds and telling them what he wants them to hear, Strawberry said. If he wants to get well hes going to have to get real. Because this is crunch time for him. This is public for him. Everyone knows that Im telling the truth.The duo, who were the subject of ESPNs 30 for 30 documentary Doc & Darryl, were recently scheduled to make a joint public appearance, but Gooden was a no-show.Hes a complete junkie-addict, Strawberry told New York Daily News about Gooden. Ive been trying behind the scenes to talk to him and get him to go for help, but he wont listen.Strawberry told the newspaper that Goodens son called him to help his father before he dies.Dwight Gooden Jr.?issued a statement to the Daily News on Sunday night, saying between the death of Goodens mother last month and his fathers work schedule, he has been under an extraordinary amount of stress, pressure and above all sadness. Gooden Jr. said his father was planning on taking a break from the spotlight to rest and regroup and address his health and that will be pushed up.Gooden, after Strawberry and others expressed concern for him following his no-show at last weeks event, sent a text to the Daily News that read: I am fine, just finishing up some minor health issues.Gooden on Monday again said he was OK.Everythings good, he said in the radio interview. I am healthy. I dont have a drug problem.
