Before Ronald Acuña Jr., Fernando Tatís, and Juan Soto there was an electrifying, bat-licking, playmaking player from Cuba, Yasiel Puig.
Puig burst on the scene in his rookie year for the Dodgers in 2013, garnering MVP votes and coming in second for Rookie of the Year. In his second year in the league, he made the All-Star team.
But the following 6 years after that, the once young superstar on the rise would experience a decline in production and would be out of the league at just 28 years old.
After bouncing around different international baseball leagues like the Dominican Winter League, Mexican League, and the Korean Baseball League, the now 32-year-old power-hitting outfielder is heading to the Caribbean.
