Alleged smuggler accused of sneaking Cuban baseball players into U.S. for cash

According to ESPN, Tomasito was at the head of the smuggling ring that originally sprung Puig from the Castro regime’s clutches. But the go-fast boat carrying the player ran out of fuel halfway between Cuba and Cancun. After making it to Mexico, Tomasito then reportedly tried to raise the price for smuggling Puig from $250,000 to $400,000 while his gang held the player and three others in a Cancun hideout.
