Andujar slashed just .161/.212/.387 over his 13 games (33 plate appearances) with Pittsburgh. The 28-year-old former Yankees prospect heads into DFA limbo with a rough .621 OPS spanning his last 400 major-league plate appearances.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Returns to bench
Andujar is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.
After starting each of the Pirates' past three games in right field, Andujar will head to the bench while Andrew McCutchen (ankle) makes his return to the lineup. Andujar went just 1-for-12 with a double during his three-game run as a starter and should see sporadic playing time moving forward.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Starting in right field
Andujar is starting in right field and batting sixth for the Pirates on Friday versus the Blue Jays.
It's Andujar's fourth start in seven games since being promoted. He's gone 4-for-12 with a pair of home runs in the early going for the Buccos. Connor Joe will take a seat.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Goes deep twice after call-up
Andujar went 4-for-5 with two home runs, a walk and six total RBI across both games of Saturday's doubleheader against Washington.
Andujar was called up from Triple-A Indianapolis Saturday morning and started the first game of the twin bill in right field while batting sixth. He plated the Pirates' first run with a single in the second inning, then broke a 2-2 tie with a two-run shot in the sixth. In Game 2, Andujar came off the bench in the seventh frame and belted a three-run homer in the ninth. He's had limited big-league success since smacking 27 homers and batting .297 for the Yankees in 2018, but Andujar may have earned some additional time on Pittsburgh's big-league roster with his big day Saturday.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Contract selected by PIT
Andujar had his contract selected by the Pirates on Saturday.
Andujar will jump right into action as the starting right fielder and No. 6 hitter in the first half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals. The 28-year-old former Yankees prospect was slashing .284/.364/.500 with three homers and two steals through 99 plate appearances this season with Triple-A Indianapolis, but it's hard to envision him offering steady fantasy production in the bigs.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Moving to minor-league camp
Andujar was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Pirates on Sunday.
The 28-year-old was a solid candidate to make Pittsburgh's Opening Day roster as a non-roster invitee, but he underwhelmed at the plate during spring training with a .195/.244/.366 slash line in 45 plate appearances. Andujar appeared in 36 games between the Yankees and Pirates last season and had a .568 OPS, so he'll likely need to settle on serving as organizational depth.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Outrighted to Triple-A
Andujar cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Indianapolis by the Pirates on Thursday, Rob Biertempfel of The Athletic reports.
It's a little surprising that Andujar passed through waivers unclaimed, but the Pirates are surely glad he'll stick around in the organization while not occupying a spot on the 40-man roster. The 27-year-old will be in major-league camp as a non-roster invitee.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Designated for assignment
Andujar was designated for assignment by the Pirates on Friday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
As a result of the team bringing in Andrew McCutchen, Andujar was removed from the 40-man roster Friday. The 27-year appeared in 36 games with the Yankees and Pirates in 2022, producing a .235 average with one homer, 17 RBI, 13 runs and four stolen bases over 132 at-bats. Considering the lack of consistent options on Pittsburgh's major-league roster, Andujar will likely get another shot with the Pirates in 2023 if he stays with the organization.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Avoids arbitration
Andujar agreed to a one-year, $1.525 million contract with the Pirates on Friday, avoiding arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Andujar will be looking to revive his career in Pittsburgh after fizzling out with the Yankees. He burst onto the scene and finished as the runner up for AL Rookie of the Year in 2018 (behind Shohei Ohtani), but Andujar went on to post a .581 OPS over the subsequent four seasons. He projects as the Pirates' primary designated hitter at this stage in the offseason.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Three hits in season finale
Andujar went 3-for-4 with a triple and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Cardinals.
Andujar singled in his first at-bat in the second inning before ripping a triple off Matthew Liberatore in the bottom of the fourth inning, later coming around to score. He added another base knock in the following frame. The multi-hit effort was his second in the last seven games. Andujar will finish the 2022 campaign with a .235 average, one home run, 17 RBI, 13 runs and four stolen bases over 132 at-bats in 36 games with the Yankees and Pirates.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Drives in winning runs
Andujar went 1-for-4 with a double and three RBI on Tuesday against the Reds.
Andujar made his lone hit of the contest count, as he cleared the bases with a double in the seventh inning to drive in the game-winning runs. Andujar has served as the designated hitter in both of his games since being claimed off waivers by the Pirates, and he's hit third and fifth in the order. He should continue to get plenty of plate appearances as the regular season winds down, and he already has four RBI with his new club.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Strong debut with Bucs
Andujar went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored Monday against the Reds.
Andujar hit third and served as the designated hitter in his debut with the Pirates. He reached base on a single in the seventh inning and came around to score on a Jack Suwinski double, and also tallied an RBI on a sacrifice fly one frame later. Andujar figures to serve a prominent role in the Pirates' lineup across the final week of the season while auditioning for a potential role with the club in 2023.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Claimed by Pittsburgh
Andujar was claimed off waivers by the Pirates on Sunday.
Andujar was designated for assignment by the Yankees on Thursday and will land a spot on the Pirates' 40-man roster a few days later. The 27-year-old has played 70 games at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this year, slashing .287/.332/.491 with 13 homers, 51 RBI, 42 runs and five stolen bases. It's not yet clear whether he'll join the Pirates' active roster for the final week and a half of the regular season.

Pirates' Miguel Andujar: Activated, debuting at DH for Bucs
The Pirates activated Andujar ahead of Monday's game against the Reds. He'll serve as the Pirates' designated hitter and No. 3 batter in the series opener.
Andujar will immediately report to the big-league club after the Pirates claimed him off waivers from the Yankees over the weekend. Since slugging 27 home runs in the 2018 season to finish second behind Shohei Ohtani in the American League Rookie of the Year balloting, Andujar found playing time hard to come by with the Yankees over the subsequent four seasons and slashed an underwhelming .228/.255/.318 across 376 plate appearances in the majors during that stretch. The Pirates are expected to give Andujar a look as a regular in the lineup over the final week and a half of the season with the hope that the change of scenery reinvigorates the 27-year-old.
