7/31 01:21: A baseball source close to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com says the D-backs and the Pirates agreed on a trade late Friday night that would send Chris Snyder to the Pirates pending approval by the commissioner’s office.

7/30 19:47: According to Major League sources close to Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports, the Arizona Diamondbacks and Pittsburgh Pirates have spoken about a trade that would send Dbacks’ catcher Chris Snyder to the Pirates.

FOXSports adds that Arizona would almost certainly need to include a substantial amount of cash in the deal.

The goal for Dbacks in this trade scenario would be to trim payroll. Snyder is earning $4.75 million this season, and he is due $5.75 million next year, then a $6.75 million club option in 2012 with a $750,000 buyout.

The 29-year-old catcher is hitting .231 with 10 home runs and 32 RBIs in 65 games this year.
