D’Backs Listening On Snyder

We know D’Backs catcher Miguel Montero has been a popular name in recent trade talks, but ESPN’s Buster Olney says they could choose to deal the more expensive backstop:

Snyder, 28 in February, hit .237/.348/.452 in 404 plate appearances this year.  He earned $1.85MM in ’08, and is under team control through 2010.
