When we think of Rick Porcello, World Series MVP isn’t the first thought to come to mind. One of the new members of the New York Mets for the 2020 season has had a successful career, but not at the level where we would expect him to carry this team to a championship.
However, if you’re a little superstitious with numbers, there’s reason to believe he’s the next in line to win this franchise a World Series MVP.
It all comes to the number on the back of his jersey. The 22 he will wear in 2020 matches what Donn Clendenon wore in 1969 and Ray Knight had on his jersey for the 1986 season.
