Brendan Donovan Expected to Return on Tuesday
St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Brendan Donovan (groin) is expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday against San Francisco Giants right-hander Logan Webb. Donovan has missed back-to-back games while dealing with soreness in his left groin. The 28-year-old landed on the 10-day injured list with a groin strain on Aug. 15 and was out of action for nearly a month before returning Sept. 12. After posting a .797 OPS in the first few months of the season and earning an All-Star nod, Donovan has stumbled to a .627 mark in the second half. Overall, though, he has hit a solid .282/.349/.408 with 10 homers, 48 RBI, 62 runs, and three steals across 116 games and 506 trips to the plate. In eight plate appearances against Webb, the lefty-swinging Donovan has gone 3-for-7 with a double, an RBI, three strikeouts, and a walk.
