Mariners Place Brendan Donovan on Injured List With Groin Strain
The Seattle Mariners announced on Monday that they placed infielder/outfielder Brendan Donovan (groin) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 18) with a left-groin muscle strain and selected infielder Will Wilson's contract from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. The M's sent the 29-year-old to the IL after he missed the last two games with his groin injury. It remains to be seen if Donovan will be ready to return when he's eligible to be reinstated on April 28. In Donovan's absence, infielder Leo Rivas should see the majority of the playing time at the hot corner in Seattle. Fantasy managers will be hoping that Donovan's IL stint doesn't get in the way of his hot start at the plate. Following his first All-Star selection in 2025 in his final year in St. Louis, he is hitting .304 (17-for-56) with three home runs, three doubles, eight RBI, seven runs scored, and a steal in 18 games played. Donovan is good for runs scored and a stable average, but his modest power/speed numbers give him a low fantasy baseball ceiling.
