Brendan Donovan on Track to Return During Next Homestand
Seattle Mariners manager Dan Wilson said that third baseman Brendan Donovan (groin) is on track to be reinstated from the 10-day injured list on the upcoming homestand, according to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times. Donovan has been working out and doing some baseball activities in Seattle. The Mariners' next homestand begins on Friday, May 1, against the Kansas City Royals and runs through next Wednesday, May 6. When active, Donovan will serve as Seattle's regular third baseman. In his first 18 games with Seattle to begin the 2026 campaign, Donovan went 17-for-56 (.304) with three home runs, three doubles, eight RBI, seven runs scored, and a stolen base in 71 plate appearances. The 29-year-old German native has very little power or speed, but he's useful in fantasy for his elite contact abilities and high batting average. He was a first-time All-Star in 2025 with the St. Louis Cardinals, hitting .287 (132-for-460) with only 10 home runs, 50 RBI, and three steals in 118 games played. Donovan should be back in the M's starting nine at some point this weekend against KC.
