LOS ANGELES – After the Reds added Yasiel Puig in December’s seven-player trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers, manager David Bell stressed that he wanted players to be themselves. Bell loved Puig’s energy and he wanted the player nicknamed Wild Horse to be comfortable.
In a pre-game press conference at Dodger Stadium on Monday with more than 30 media members and a half-dozen TV cameras, Puig stood at the front of the room and raved about his new club.
