On November 15, Puig announced that he had changed his agent. With a post on his social networks, he thanked Rachel Luba and then announced Lissete Carnet as his new representative.
On the fact he commented:
“She has always been with me, I wanted to change someone else who can also help me. We are giving everything to return to the Major Leagues, me on the field and she (Lissete) as an agent. The other girl (Rachel Luba) is a great person, she has affairs with other of her athletes and she couldn’t be dealing 100% with me. That’s why we decided to change, she always tried to do her best to find me a contract. “
