    Someone on MLB made a crack that when the Dodgers resigned Juan Uribe it was to insure that Puig had the highest paid baby sitter in baseball.

    ...yeah, I think I heard that too, and they're probably right. Some definitely needs to nurture this kid...he's incredibly gifted but he goes about some things in the wrong manner.

    I agree, someone needs to pull the reins in on this kid before it gets out of hand.

    Good luck with that. It will be interesting to see how the Dodgers respond to his ways over the next year or 2. It could be Mattingly's biggest problem as he is caught in the middle with the fact that a talent like that has to play but at what cost, and that cost will have more to do with off the field than on it I fear. But he is your classic million dollar athlete with a 10 cent brain.

    ...that's just "Puig being Puig"?
