He was noticed by scouts for the baseball team called the “New York Mets”, and in 1983 he signed a contract with this team. This was the time when Darryl Strawberry’s net worth began growing. Darryl became one of the best players of the team and contributed a lot to the team’s wins, including World Series Champions in 1986.
