He is not a man without a country. Yasiel Puig is merely a man without an agent, which means only so much for a player two years away from free agency. On Thursday afternoon at Camelback Ranch, Puig appeared far more passionate about a post-workout ping-pong match with Dodgers hitting coach Turner Ward than his lack of representation.
More than a week has passed since the Wasserman agency publicly dumped him. Puig was not bothered by the breakup, he said. He insisted he did not feel urgency to find a replacement.
"I'm not looking for anyone," he said, before backtracking to admit he had taken a few meetings with interested suitors.
