In 2008, his career ended and was incarcerated into a state penitentiary for a felony crime while playing for the AA Frisco Roughriders.

During Puffer's time behind bars, he became a new person through faith and found a new purpose.

Since 2011, Puffer's baseball family helped him start a new life. He found love, heart break, and disappointment.

He remained focused on what he can control and accepting only what fit his new life. A life which included baseball as a coach and inspiration.

Through his faith, Puffer used his platform to being transparent about his story.

In 2019, Puffer set a goal to write a book called: From the Bullpen to the State Pen.

Fast forward to late 2022, goal achieved.

The book has been published and your order your own copy on Amazon.
