Yasiel Puig has been away from the Dodgers for almost a year and a half now. When we sat down to talk with analyst Jerry Hairston this week, we weren’t expecting Puig’s name to come up. But we just couldn’t resist, as we asked J-Hair for his favorite Yasiel story.
As it turns out, Hairston did not have a specific story from when Puig was with the Dodgers, at least not one he could say out loud. Be he did make a VERY interesting comparison between Yasiel and one of the greatest basketball players of all time.
