Trade Details
TSUTSUGO SENT TO THE DODGERS Saturday, May 15, 2021
The Los Angeles Dodgers acquired infielder/outfielder Yoshi Tsutsugo from the Tampa Bay Rays for a player to be named later and cash considerations.
What does it give the Los Angeles Dodgers?
The Dodgers love versatile players, so Tsutsugo has a chance to stick with Los Angeles. He has power and patience, two more staples of the current Dodgers lineup. Moreover, he did not cost them much.
What does it give the Tampa Bay Rays?
Tsutsugo had been designated for assignment recently, so the Rays did well to land a future asset and cash in exchange for his services. The return of Ji-Man Choi likely sealed Tsutsugo's fate.
Fantasy Impact
For now, Choi has more fantasy value than Tsutsugo. Watch how the latter is utilized by the Dodgers.
