Welcome to a special edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. As part of our ongoing effort to support Dwight “Doc” Gooden’s rightful place in the National Baseball Hall of Fame, we speak with Tony Giordano—MLBPA Certified Player Agent and Director of Baseball Operations at North Star Sports Management Group.

A proud U.S. Navy veteran and Manhattan College graduate, Tony built one of the most respected boutique baseball agencies from the ground up, representing players like John Franco and Jeff Innis during a 16-year career. Known for his grit, integrity, and loyalty, Tony shares his personal connection to Doc Gooden, their friendship, and why he believes Gooden’s achievements on the mound—paired with his resilience—make him a clear choice for enshrinement in Cooperstown.
