Scott Dohmann was designated for assignment today as Al Reyes was removed from the 15 day DL. Personally, I was upset with this move, and suprised. I know Dohmann has been poor in his last few outings, but I really think this guy can be a solid middle reliever for a long time. He pitched very well last year when he got the chance, and personally I am not too fond of Reyes, I really hope Dohmann clears waivers and agrees to being optioned to Durham, I like this guy a lot, maybe because he is the only one in the pen who stepped up last year besides Reyes. Looking it over though, I guess it is the right move, I thought Birkins would go but his 0.90 ERA in 10 innings is great, so I guess we really did not have any other option. And Hammel is too valuable to take a chance with waivers, we have 3 lefties in the pen but all of them have done very well.
Do any of you think there is a chance Dohmann will make it to Durham and on another note, do you think there could be a trade involving Al Reyes a little later in the year?
