Kenji Otonari will be heading to Ni-gun after giving up 5 runs (including a grand slam to Alex Cabrera) over 6 innings of work against Orix on Thursday.
During pre-game practice yesterday, pitching coach Ikuo Takayama called Otonari over to him and gave him a 30 minute speech, after which he told Otonari was being demoted to Ni-gun.
