Description: Minnesota C/DH Ryan Doumit is hitless in 11 at-bats versus Detroit ace Justin Verlander. | Insight: This would be a good day for the Twins DH to take off. He's already off to a poor start, batting .197, and this won't help. Avoid the matchup. | | |

Description: Minnesota C/DH Ryan Doumit is just 2-for-13 (.154) with six strikeouts against Yankees lefty C.C. Sabathia. | Insight: As long as Dpumit continue to maintain is catcher eligibility he'll keep his fantasy value. He's batting .276 with 16 HR, 67 RBI and a .775 OPS. | | |

The 31-year-old's catcher eligibility makes him a player to hold onto in fantasy. | | |
| 7/13/2012 7:32:00 PM |
Description: Minnesota DH and occasional catcher Ryan Doumit will sit out Friday night's game against Oakland. | Insight: Instead Drew Butera (.242, 1 HR, 4 RBIs) will draw the start at catcher with Joe Mauer (.326, 5 HRs, 41 RBIs) sliding into the DH slot. | | |

| 6/22/2012 10:55:00 PM |
Description: Minnesota C/DH Ryan Doumit went 4-for-4 with a double and a solo homer Friday against the Reds. | Insight: Doumit will start at catcher until Joe Mauer returns from his quad injury. You can likely do better at that position, however, despite Doumit's big night. | | |
| 6/14/2012 1:30:00 PM |

In his career he is just 4-23 (.174) against him with six strikeouts. | Insight: Doumit (.258, 6 HRs, 29 RBIs) homered in the series opener but that seems unlikely against Dempster: he has never recorded an extra base hit against the Cubs righty. | | |
| 5/25/2012 7:23:00 PM |
Description: Ryan Doumit is questionable for Friday's game against Detroit with a strained right calf. | Insight: Doumit played two of the three games against the White Sox, but was held out of Thursday's day game after a night game. With eligibility at both catcher and the outfield, Doumit has solid fantasy value. | | |
| 5/18/2012 7:23:00 PM |
Description: Ryan Doumit (calf) isn't in the Twins' starting lineup but he will be available to pinch hit Friday night against Milwaukee. | Insight: The expectation is that Doumit (.264, 5 HRs 24 RBIs) will be able to play again when the Twins return to American League Tuesday against the White Sox. Doumit's last start came on Wednesday against the Tigers. | | |
| 5/18/2012 1:59:00 PM |
Description: Minnesota C/OF Ryan Doumit is expected to miss Friday's game against Milwaukee with a strained calf. The team no longer thinks he'll need a trip to the DL, but could be DH'ing by Tuesday. | Insight: Doumit is batting .264 with five homers and 24 RBI and with catcher eligibility is a valuable fantasy assest. | | |
| 5/17/2012 1:27:00 PM |
Description: Ryan Doumit had been expected to be placed on the DL after straining his left quad but instead the Twins have decided to keep him active. Consider Doumit day-to-day. | Insight: Doumit's RBI total is off the charts right now. He's driven in 24 runs in 33 games. That puts him on pace to finish with 105 for the season, 36 RBIs more than his career high of 69 set in 2008 as a member of the Pirates. Plus he has eligibilty as a catcher and an outfielder. Doumit might miss three or four games, but he's certainly worth holding on to. | | |
| 4/19/2012 10:14:00 PM |
Description: Ryan Doumit went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBIs on Thursday at New York. | Insight: Doumit finally delivered a useful fantasy line. He was batting .219 with no homers and one RBI coming into Thursday. Doumit has catcher eligibility so he could be a valuable bat at that position, but he'll have to hit better than he has so far to warrant a roster spot. | | |
