Great catch. Better be glad that wrist didn't snap. PED's help though.

Pretty obvious just looking at him that he is on something.

Unreal catch, but it looks like he may have run that a little too deep which ended up in him having to make an acrobatic catch.

Run that a little too deep? Lmao. You are an idiot. Dude was busting tail full speed just to get there. That's a double/triple for 99% of MLB Right Fielders in the game right now. He is one of maybe 2 or 3 guys that could've made this catch.

The guy is a beast and he doesn't get enough credit for just how well rounded he is in my opinion. So many think he's just some big dude that can mash, but no, he truly can do everything, and he does everything very well. He has some mental lapses every now and then but his physical talent is out of this world. Or should I say, out of this country? Freakin Cubans

He should have flipped his glove after the catch

Right as he reaches the "X" on the back of the Xerox sign you can see him cut in as he realizes he misread it, dipshit. He was hauling arse but he still misread it.

Well he doesn't know the infield fly rule and is a terrible base runner.

Just from the gif it looks like a good angle on the ball. He's diving close to a 45 degree angle, which is appropriate at that part of the gap. I haven't seen the full clip though.

You're right, he sucks man. Send him back to Cuba.

I just don't consider this a "misread" ball. It's not like it's a routine fly ball. That would be considered misread. This is a ball that was smoked and hit in the gap, he read the ball well enough to be able to make a catch. That's all that really matters.

nailed it.

And you don't misread a ball that you have to run 60 yds for. You just run to an area and hope you can catch it which is exactly what he did.

Meh, I am not impressed with most of these diving catches and all. Just doesn't seem impressive to me. This one is in that category. I'd be excited if it was a braves who made the catch but right now

Talk about extremes, from a guy saying he misread a fly ball to you taking it as he said Puig sucks. You may be a little sensitive here buddy
