The Los Angeles Dodgers made several moves last week with an eye on improving their bench and adding depth to the organization. Among them included the signing of future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols, who made his team debut in Monday’s series opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The Dodgers also acquired Yoshi Tsutsugo from the Tampa Bay Rays, who was designated for assignment after hitting just .167/.244/.218 in 26 games this season. He went 0-for-2 with a pair of walks in his team debut.
Tsutsugo has struggled offensively since coming over from Japan a year ago but is confident Dodgers hitting coaches can help him recapture his swing.
