Rosenthal reported further details on the news.

Puig trade more likely in off-season, when #Dodgers could negotiate with 29 teams rather than one – assuming he is claimed, which is likely.

Puig has been the subject of much speculation surrounding his future with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Reports surfaced that the Dodgers were trying to desperately move him at first, then there were reports that they had rejected numerous offers from teams and they were in no rush to trade him.

Whichever version of the story you believe is your choice but one thing is that Puig has struggled on and off the field this season. Los Angeles looks as if they are ready to move on and it might be as soon as this winter.
