The 22-year-old outfielder from Cuba was called up to the Dodgers on Monday to play his first major league game. In two games, he has five hits including a double, two home runs, and five RBIs. In 40 games in Double-A Chattanooga this year, Puig was batting .313 with 46 hits, 12 doubles, three triples, eight home runs and 37 RBIs. He also added in 13 stolen bases and scored 26 runs.
At 6-foot-3, 245 pounds, san diego hotel suites Puig is a physical specimen unlike most athletes san diego hotel suites in any sport. He has incredible speed on the basepaths to go along with an absolute cannon of an arm, which was on display in his first major league game in which his throw from right field doubled up a Padres runner to win the game.
Baseball is what is; it's a slow, long and drawn out sporting event. It doesn't have the action of football, basketball, or hockey. Sometimes games can take up to four hours to be completed, with the scoring possibly ending 1-0.

To get people interested in baseball, the sport needs that guy that will sell tickets no matter where he travels. It needs that guy that you have to watch, like Michael Jordan , Tom Brady , LeBron James , or Sidney Crosby . There will be fans, there will be critics, but everyone will be watching. Puig can be that guy.
As with any rising star, Puig will have his ups and downs. He will go through slumps, just like every hitter in baseball does. There will possibly be a few rough seasons, but the freakish tools are there. He has many things that just cannot be coached.
Hopefully, Puig can bring back that long lost interest san diego hotel suites to Major League Baseball that hasn't been here since Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa and help get it out of the dark cloud of performance-enhancing drug scandals.
