Puig Emerges as Dodgers New Leading Man in L A
Los Angeles reliefs Puig is a 22-year-old right fielder whose energetic play and striking personality have generated a strong buzz. He debuted after being called up from Double-A Chattanooga on June 3, posted 13 hits in 28 at-bats and four homers in his first seven games, was NL player of the week, and helped the Dodgers win a 2-1 game with a defensive standout throw. He signed a $42 million seven-year contract last June, a Cuban defector record.
