After the Dodgers acquired outfielder Josh Reddick on Aug. 1, they sent Puig to triple-A Oklahoma City due to his diminished production and troublesome attitude. The addition of Puig injects an element of intrigue into an already unpredictable season for the Dodgers (74-59). Puig cannot aid the patchwork starting rotation, but he might help solve the Dodgers’ issues with left-handed pitching. Before he was sent down, Puig struggled at times with consistency in his work habits and in-game focus. The Dodgers could pair Reddick and Puig in right field as a platoon.
