Will Yasiel Puig Return to Form?

Trade rumors involving Puig popped up last season. The reasons were allegedly in connection with questionable habits, including failing to show up on time and a less than stellar work ethic. Additionally, there were injuries that nagged him throughout 2015 and limited him to 79 games. Yet the kicker was probably the overall lack of production when he did play. A .255 batting average with a .322 on-base percentage will not cut in Los Angeles. Early reports coming out of spring training are that 2016 version of Puig comes with a new attitude and better work habits. If he can maintain this new approach and stay healthy, its probably a sure bet he will return to form.
