Brendan Donovan: Breaking News

Will miss more than minimum time

Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said Sunday that Donovan will receive a platelet-rich plasma injection for his strained left groin as well as his adductor and is expected to resume baseball activity in 2-to-3 weeks, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. Seattle placed Donovan on the 10-day injured list Sunday, and given that he won't be on track to resume on-field activity for at least another two weeks, he's not a candidate to return to action when first eligible May 26 and will see his absence extend into June. Donovan previously missed about three weeks of action earlier this season after straining the same groin, so the Mariners could proceed more cautiously with bringing him back from the shelf this time around. For however long Donovan is out of action, Colt Emerson is expected to serve as the Mariners' everyday third baseman.

Placed on 10-day IL

Donovan (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. Donovan was set to miss a second straight contest with an undisclosed injury, but he will now be forced to miss at least 10 days while nursing a left groin strain. The move was made retroactive to Saturday, so the earliest that he could return to action is May 26. In the meantime, the Mariners called up top prospect Colt Emerson ahead of their series finale against the Padres on Sunday.

Remaining on bench Sunday

Donovan (undisclosed) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports. Donovan was scratched from Saturday's lineup due to what the Mariners labeled a "load-management decision," and he finds himself on the bench for a second straight game Sunday. The 29-year-old has gone 6-for-28 with two extra-base hits in seven contests since coming back from a groin strain in early May. According to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times, manager Dan Wilson said Donovan could be available off the bench Sunday, depending how he is feeling during his pregame work.
