Embattled outfielder Yasiel Puig would have preferred a trade to another team instead of being demoted to the minors, but he admitted he has learned some humility since joining the Los Angeles Dodgers Triple-A team in Oklahoma City.Puig, who was placed on revocable waivers by the organization on Sunday, spoke with ESPNs Marly Rivera in Oklahoma City about lessons learned and his future in the majors -- as well as the difficulty of watching the Dodgers recent run of success.Watching the Dodgers being in first place, its very difficult, Puig said. The moment I arrived in L.A., people were crazy for me -- 50-60 thousand people [cheering] at the stadium. I got used to that amount of fans. Getting to Triple-A and not seeing as many fans is not very appealing or fun to play baseball, but this is what I have to do for my future.A reflective Puig said he has learned humility during his three-week stint in the minor leagues, despite stirring up controversy after social media posts emerged of him partying with his new teammates after a loss.[Playing in the minors] is something that has taught me humility, and I am very grateful, he said. I do not know what the future will hold in the next few hours. I dont know where I will go. I dont know my fate. God only knows my destiny, and I am here to fulfill it. He gave me many opportunities, the way [the Dodgers] did, and I put myself in this situation.Any team that picks him off waivers could then negotiate a trade with the Dodgers. He has performed well in Oklahoma City and has a .375 average, helping to raise his previously diminished trade value.Puig also apologized to both current Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and former skipper Don Mattingly for his previous behavior, which included showing up late to meetings and batting practices.?He admitted that his future in Dodger blue is now out of his control.I keep hitting. Im behaving. Im doing the work I have to do, Puig said. What I did wrong before and I have been doing better the last two or three weeks that Ive been here. [Being called up] does not depend on me. All I can do is try to improve what I did wrong, the things that got me sent me here. The rest does not depend on me, thats [a decision for] the GM, the president. Only God knows where I will end up.Puig said that adapting to the rules of a major league clubhouse since his breakout season in 2013 contributed to his struggles both on and off the field.It is the same rules whether [youre] in Cuba or in the U.S., Puig said. If you dont train, if you dont respect your coaches, whether you are amateur or professional, you will have the same problems.Puig also spoke about what advice he would give to his younger self.I would give him the same advice I would be asking for right now. I would sit with him face-to-face and then tell him the things that he has been doing wrong, the things he should do better to be a better teammate and stay in the big leagues, all the things that were never done with him.

DENVER -- When Corey Seager began grasping his hand in excruciating pain, the Los Angeles Dodgers held their breath.A collective sigh of relief, though, as X-rays were negative after the All-Star rookie shortstop was hit by a pitch near his left wrist. The team can shake off an 8-1 loss to the Colorado Rockies on Monday night a lot easier now.After all, Seagers had a big hand in the success of the NL West-leading Dodgers this season. He wont play Tuesday, but that was planned anyway.Anything around the hand is pretty scary, but fortunately hes young, resilient, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.Seager stepped toward a pitch from Chris Rusin in the seventh only for it to hit him as he tried to lean away.

It was that one pitch which was a slider inside that was definitely a mistake pitch.Jon Gray (9-6) surrendered four hits and struck out eight over a crisp six innings for his first win since Aug. 2.I feel like sometimes you can out-aggressive people. I like to do that, Gray said. Bring a little intensity and cruise from there.Gray started strong, which hasnt always been the case this season. Of the 72 runs he has allowed, 34 have been scored in the opening ttwo innings.ddddddddddddIn this game, not even a third-inning downpour could interrupt his concentration.Gray ran into trouble in the fifth with two on and one out. Adrian Gonzalez sent a sinking liner to center that Charlie Blackmon hauled in as he slid on the slick grass. Gray pointed his glove toward the outfielder in appreciation.That was awesome, Gray said. That really helped me out a lot.DJ LeMahieu had a two-run double in a five-run seventh that turned a pitching duel into a rout.TRAINERS ROOMDodgers: LHP Clayton Kershaw (mild disk irritation) will face hitters in a simulated game on Tuesday in Los Angeles.
