Yasiel Puig Receives Two-Game Suspension
6 years agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Yasiel Puig was slapped with a two-game suspension for his part in a benches-clearing incident with the Pirates on Sunday. He received the suspension for "aggressive actions during the incident," and he won't appeal the suspension at all. His suspension will begin on Tuesday. The 28-year-old Cuban has struggled to start the year with his new club, going just 4-for-30 (133) with nine strikeouts. It's a discouraging start, but it's still early and Puig could prove to be a value in fantasy leagues before it's all said and done.
