Here we go again! How much do we dislike Yasiel Puig? Not only is he arogant and a hot head, he is NOT a team player. Yesterday my brother, Steve excused his behavior with a: "he is young", but seriously? He's like a two year old throwing a tantrum on the field! Yes, there is no debating he has talent, that throw to home to get Brandon Belt on Monday night was a big league throw, simply amazing.
He made it look effortless and poetic, but one day later he is challenging our Big Country Boy, Madison Bumgarner-not too smart. He was also hitless. What Dodgers Manager Don Mattingly must remind Puig is that he is not alone in the outfield, baseball is after all a team sport. And at the end of the season, the team with not just individual talent, but a collective mentality of all for one, and one for all will most likely take home the World Series trophy and rings.
The Giants are reeling from injuries to our Angel in the outfield, Pagan; our horse, Matt Cain, and free spirit Michael Morse. But they are playing as a joint unit with the newbies taking on a major role. Can they win it all this year? Let's get to the post-season and let the bats speak one after another. One thing for sure, there is no love lost between the north and south.
