Dodgers’ Yasiel Puig back in camp, minus 2 teeth

Yasiel Puig participated in his first full spring training workout with the Dodgers on Friday.

Puig missed the Dodgers’ first full workout of spring in Glendale, Ariz., Thursday after getting two wisdom teeth removed from the left side of his mouth.

A day later, the Cuban slugger went to work at the Dodgers’ Camelback Ranch training complex.

Puig says his dentist told him to get the teeth pulled quickly before the Dodgers got too deep into spring.

Puig has already been in Arizona for a week. The outfielder still hasn’t received any potential disciplinary penalty under baseball’s new domestic violence policy after a reported altercation with his sister and a bouncer at a Miami nightclub last November.
