Yasiel Puig: I Can't Even Think of a Word That Rhymes!

I really hope Puig pays someone to paint this and put it over his mantle in his mansion.

it's am amazing shot all around, down to little details like Puig's number, right in the center, being the only immediately visible one in the image (you can make out small numbers on the other jerseys but none of them pop out in the same way)

who is the Red holding his ankles? along with the Hurdle-helmed Pirates surging forward against Puig, it comes off like a pastiche of military paintings

this pic is nearly as good

Got a little choked up at that last moment when he came off the field and that fan in the front row, right in front of him, was waving that Reds #66 jersey at him.

i did some investigating and I think Tucker Barnhart is holding Puig's ankles there.

He came up in an e-mail response on James's site today. Where is he? What happened? How can a 30-year-old who hit 24 HR and had a slash line of .267/.327/.458 when he last played two years ago not have potential value for someone? A little erratic, true, but he never really had a bad season, and I would think his flair and enthusiasm would be clubhouse positives.

Okay, I didn't know there were sexual assault allegations pending. That explains that.

he is apparently trying to start bench-clearing brawls for being pitched around

should probably direct his anger towards the ump if he'd been calling that pitch a strike all game

Shot: Yasiel Puig could do up to five years in prison for lying to the feds arising out of an illegal gambling ring.

Chaser: he was in over $200K in debt at one point, paid it, and then made 899 more bets in a two month period! https://t.co/NpxN6ls8SD

not a name i remember but perhaps some of you do:

Federal prosecutors today also filed a plea agreement for former MLB player Erik Kristian Hiljus, 49, of Panorama City, who agreed to plead guilty to two counts of subscribing to false tax returns and will face up to six years in federal prison upon entering his guilty plea. Hiljus was an agent for Nix’s illegal gambling business but did not work with Puig.
