The Dodgers outfielder had$500,000 in jewelrystolen from his house in March 2017 and$150 in costume jewelryswiped during Game 7 of the World Series last October, while there was also anattemptedrobberyin August.After the second burglary, Puig made it clear to TMZ Sports that he wasn't sweating things.(Warning: NSFW language.)"I ain't worried about that s--t," Puig told TMZ Sports in November 2017. "I have a f--king lot of money."Puig is hitting .273 with 21 home runs, 20 doubles and 58 RBI in 115 games this season.

Jim McIsaac/Getty ImagesAfter a number of MLB players have recently apologized for posting racially insensitive and homophobic tweets in the past, Washington Nationals closer Sean Doolittle discussed the topic during a lengthy Twitter thread Monday."It's been a tough couple of weeks for baseball on twitter," Doolittle wrote (warning: thread contains profanity). "It sucks to see racist and homophobic language coming from inside our league鈥攁 league I'm so proud to be a part of that I've worked really hard to make a more accepting and inclusive place for all our fans to enjoy."Doolittle went on to say athletes shouldn't shy away from using Twitter as a platform to engage with fans but instead be more mindful of the platform they're afforded:"It's a reminder that words matter http://www.bravesfanproshop.com/authentic-tom-glavine-jersey , and that the impact the of words matter more than the intent. Rather than feeling like this platform makes us targets and we have to censor ourselves, find a way to use the platform to lift others up and make a positive impact.It can be tough for athletes to understand why these words are so hurtful. Most of us have been at the top of the food chain since HS, immune to insults. When all you've known is success and triumph it can be difficult to empathize with feeling vulnerable or marginalized."During the 2018 MLB All-Star Game, Twitter users discovered racist and homophobic tweets Milwaukee Brewers closer Josh Hader sent when he was 17. Haderapologizedafter the game, and MLBrequired himto attended sensitivity training.More recently, Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Sean Newcomb and Nationals shortstop Trea Turner apologized after offensive comments they made years ago resurfaced.
