A few days after a demotion to Triple-A Indianapolis, Duffy was placed on the minor league restricted list Thursday for failing to report to the minors. Duffy contested his demotion in a one-hour meeting with Pirates manager Jim Tracy and general manager Dave Littlefield following an 8-2 loss to Florida Sunday. Apparently the center fielder wasn't happy about efforts to alter his hitting approach after a successful rookie season a year ago. (Updated 5/18/2006) Analysis: Duffy was sent to Indianapolis with a .194 average and .255 OBP in 31 games after hitting .341 with a .385 OBP in 39 games last season.
