Puig is unbelievable. If I didn't witness these past 4 games I wouldn't believe it. Unreal. So glad he's ours.
When was the last time you were excited by brining up a player like this? I don't think I was this excited for Kershaw/Kemp when we brought them up.
Even more impressive is that he did this the day after going Ofer.. Puig is a force to be reckoned with! :jedi:
If Puig is legit (and I am just hoping he is not Cody Ross. Remember when he first came up? It is a tough game. Pitchers will adjust. That said, if he is legit, we need a contingency plan. The easiest thing would be moving him to 3rd. However, that arm....oh, that arm. We now have an issue. But, what an issue to have. We have Puig/Crawford/Kemp/Ethier/Van Slyke and Pederson looking up. I would seriously consider giving SVS reps at 3rd. He is 26 and Seager is a year away.
I'm flipping between Prime Ticket, MLBN, and ESPN trying to catch them talk about Dodgers and Puig. Also listening to 570am. I fucking love this guy. Puig is the present and the future.
Compared him to Vladimar Guerrero. Said that Puig has power to all parts of the field and he is really difficult to pitch to because you can't just pitch outside and hope he only hurts you with a single.
SVS has earned his spot (all hail BLF ). Good power hitter off the bench. Kid has worked his ass off. Great to see something like that. He didn't like the position he was in, and instead of bitching about it, he just worked hard. Need that kind of work ethic on the team.
I'm not seeing any of the negative personality shit the press or Dodgertalk was saying about him before his call up. Either he changed because he listens or they were fucking lying. This kid, superman performances aside looks to be a great guy and care about the game. Even on the GS, he put his head down and ran the bases...no bat flip, no posing, no admiring, he just takes off. That's one thing we can prove that he's changed because of all the video we've seen. Man, he coulda pimp that GS a little bit, I give him permission...that was awesome! The other thing is that these players really seem to like him so far. It doesn't even seem like it's because he's good, they just seem to like him as a person. Shit, Ethier looks like his BFF out there. This is so much like Manny's arival. Remember Manny? Anyways, lets ride him until he's finally caught using P.E.D.s. Maybe a WS before then? Fuck Yeah, this is a great game after that shitty game I went to last night!
