Yasiel Puig Won T Be Suspended By Mlb For Bar Incident

Puig was involved in an altercation with a bouncer when he was asked to leave the Blue Martini bar Nov. 25 following an argument with his sister. Puig reportedly had shoved the woman, which later prompted an investigation under MLB’s new domestic violence policy.

MLB, in a statement announcing its decision, cited a lack of evidence.

Puig’s case is one of three domestic violence-related investigations baseball has opened this offseason.

Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman was suspended 30 games for his role in an October domestic dispute. Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes was placed on paid leave for an October incident with his wife in Hawaii. His punishment is pending a resolution of his legal case.
