Yasiel Puig is back in a baseball uniform.
The outfielder will join the Toros del Este of the Dominican Winter League starting on Monday, the team announced.
Puig did not play in MLB last season after initially reaching an agreement with the Atlanta Braves in July, but the deal fell apart after he tested positive for COVID-19.
The one-time All-Star is expected to use the Dominican Winter League as a showcase for big-league clubs.
The Cuban native reportedly drew interest from the Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, and Houston Astros after he announced on Nov. 24 he was ready to play again in 2021.
Puig, who also turns 30 on Monday, hit .267/.327/.458 with 24 home runs and 84 RBIs for the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Indians in 2019.
