Yasiel Puig may not be a daily Major League Baseball headline anymore, but people still talk about him. Years after his exciting run with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the former outfielder remains a name many fans remember. This week, the attention moved to his personal life after his girlfriend Sabrina shared a new post on Instagram that quickly got noticed.
The post included a few photos and a caption that read, “Red that vibe with me. ❤️ 🔥.” Puig also responded in the comments, writing, “Beautiful girlfriend I have ❤️ 🔥.” The exchange was simple and light. Even though it had nothing to do with baseball, it showed that fans are still interested in what Puig is doing today.
A look back at Yasiel Puig’s MLB rise and lasting impact
Puig began to grab headlines with the Dodgers, and soon became one of the most discussed players in the league. He had a powerful throwing arm, a rough style, and big bat moments at the plate throughout the most successful years of his career. In 2017, he produced over 70 RBIs and remained consistent on the plate.
He crossed the 100 hits milestone in 2018 and still reminded people of his capabilities by spending time with both Cincinnati and Cleveland in 2019, where he had productive stretches.
His MLB career has changed since those peak years, but his name still stands out. Social media posts like this week’s update show that people remain curious about his life beyond baseball. For a player who once thrived under bright stadium lights, the spotlight has not fully gone away.
For many players, the attention fades once their time in the majors slows down. That has not fully happened with Puig. His early years in Los Angeles left a strong impression on fans who still remember his energy and passion on the field. Even now, small updates from his personal life can spark conversations online. It shows how strong first impressions in sports can last for years. While he may not be playing under the same bright lights anymore, Puig’s journey continues in a different way, proving that some names remain familiar long after the final inning.
