I think Snyder will put up better numbers this year and he too will be gone at the deadline.

Doumit= Glass man,if the guy could actually stay healthy for a full season he might be able to put up some pretty decent numbers but his defense is truly god awful,he can’t play behind the plate cause even a slob like me could walk into second and then third. If i recall in softball u always put the worst athlete at first base and we’ve all seen what he can do there,dh only.

I agree, but Doumit’s bat isn’t good enough to DH either. His offense would be more than acceptable if he was even an average catcher, but you want more out of a guy that’s going to play any other position.

He’s a poor man’s Mike Napoli.

No one will take him at this point. The Pirates are gonna have to pray that he will have a productive first 2-3 months that he generates enough interest from a division contending team.
Possibilities:
Red Sox (maybe if Saltalamacchia struggles)
Blu Jays (If they are in position to win the Wild Card)
Angels (Same reason as Jays)
Padres (maybe if in position and desperate enough but I don’t think he’ll generate attention from NL teams)

If Kurt Suzuki struggles again this year I could see the A’s making a play for him

Ok, But if Beane offers Andy Laroche in return, and Neil accepts, I’m gonna throw a Kanniption fit!!

Olivo sucks. Hasn’t doumit played LF?
Smrtbusnisman04
Yeah and he was abysmal. It was like hiring a guy driving a tractor to play right field.
I’m sorry, but Ryan is nothing more than a glorified hitter with some occasional power.

Doumit has as much trade value as Furbys at swap meets.

Where’s the Pirate fans from a few months ago that was trying to rationalize a trade for our Gavin Floyd built around Ryan Doumit and Andy LaRoche? That’s why you’re not real GMs.
