Doumit, Ohlendorf look to be out with Bucs

"Once considered building blocks for the Pirates' future, catcher Ryan Doumit and pitcher Ross Ohlendorf likely won't be with the team next season.

Doumit, 30, will become a free agent if the team declines to pick up contract options for 2012 and '13 worth a combined $15.5 million. The Pirates also are not expected to tender a contract to Ohlendorf, 29, who is in his second year of arbitration eligibility.

Doumit was not in the lineup Wednesday for the Pirates' regular-season finale. His last game behind the plate was Friday, when he was injured when struck on the mask by a foul tip.

"It's not the way I wanted to go out," Doumit said. "The last couple of days, I've just tried to enjoy it and soak it all up. I know the probability of me being back is slim. I'm just thinking about the big picture and weighing my options.""
