Dodgers respond to Yasiel Puig’s arrest
The team released a statement on Sunday regarding its star outfielder’s recent reckless driving charge.


We have spoken to Yasiel and made it clear that we, as an organization, are very disappointed in his recent behavior. This is a very serious issue to us and we will continue to educate him and strive to further develop his growth off the field and as a member of this community.
Puig was arrested on Saturday for driving 110 miles per hour in a 70 mph zone on I-75 in Florida. It was his second reckless driving arrest in 2013, with the first coming in Tennessee in April. The Dodgers are not issuing any public discipline at this time, such as a fine or a suspension, but this is not unusual; teams normally handle minor off-field incidents like this internally.
