Good results following transfer last season, but sluggish this season

Pirates infielder Yoshitomo Tsutsugo has been declared a de facto outfielder (DFA), according to Jason McKay of the local newspaper Post Gadget Sports. In the future, it will be waivered, and if there are no offers from other teams, options such as free contract (FA) and minor demotion will be available.
