Ryan Doumit is starting in right field Saturday against the Padres, his first outfield action since 2007.
We need some offense today," said manager John Russell. Doumit is in due to Delwyn Young experiencing back tightness, Andy LaRoche knocked out due to the flu and Garrett Jones nursing a banged-up right shoulder. While Doumit could see occasional time in the outfield in the future, it will only be in similar situations. Source: MLBlogs.com
