Los Angeles Dodgers

Yasiel Puig needed less than two innings to make headlines again after the All-Star break.

The Los Angeles Dodgers traveled to Washington to take on the Nationals, and Puig showed off that howitzer of an arm once again.

Puig gunned down Nationals superstar and 20-year-old phenom Bryce Harper for a double play in the bottom of the second inning...or did he?

Yes and no.

Perhaps Yasiel Puig losing out in his chase for the National League's final All-Star spot was serendipitous after all.

According to a release by the official MLB Twitter, Los Angeles Dodgers rookie sensation Yasiel Puig has been omitted from the 2013 National League All-Star team.

The question of whether or not Yasiel Puig will be in the All-Star Game was finally answered on Saturday—no.

OK, maybe it's premature to say that Puig won't play in the Midsummer Classic, but he needs your help. He was named to the Final Vote for the NL reserves, and it's up to the fans to decide if he makes it or not.

The rosters for the 2013 MLB All-Star Game will be announced Saturday evening, and one of the big questions on everyone's mind going into the selection show is the status of Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig. Is the 22-year-old worthy of an All-Star bid or not?

After missing the month of June with thoracic outlet syndrome that caused numbness in his pitching hand, Josh Beckett appears headed for the disabled list for the remainder of the season.

Since his call-up from the minor leagues on June 3, Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig has set the baseball world on fire with a barrage of big hits, long home runs and laser throws (not to mention a few boneheaded base running mistakes).

One thing the Los Angeles Dodgers have to be given credit for on a night where nothing went right—they know how to end a streak in grand fashion.

Backed by a 21-hit attack and a six-RBI night from embattled outfielder Delmon Young, the Philadelphia Phillies whipped the Dodgers, 16-1.

It represented the Dodgers' worst loss at home since they moved out west in 1958.

When the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Yasiel Puig, he didn't even know what color they wore.

Merriam-Webster defines all-star as “composed wholly or chiefly of stars or of outstanding performers or participants.”  On July 16, the stars and outstanding performers from the 30 Major League Baseball teams will assemble at Citi Field in New York to showcase their talents in a battle for World Series home-field advantage.
