Donovan’s Return Timeline Revealed | Spokane News

Brendan Donovan, Seattle’s leadoff hitter and soon-to-be dad, is set for a crucial medical check-up Monday to determine his return timeline after a groin strain — potentially allowing him to join the Mariners in LA for their Dodgers series. On the injured list since May 16, this is his second stint this season following October’s sports hernia surgery. Though he’s hitting .274 with 3 homers in 25 games, his rehab has been a work in progress: he’s batting just .200 in his first 30 at-bats across rehab stops, but he’s feeling physically strong and playing multiple positions — including 3B, 2B, LF, and RF — while even snagging a leaping catch. When healthy, he’ll likely serve as a super-utility player with DH opportunities. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
