Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Cleared for rehab assignment
Donovan (groin) will embark on a rehab assignment Tuesday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Donovan is ready to take the next step in his recovery from a left groin strain that landed him on the 10-day injured list in mid-May. Given the length of his absence, the veteran infielder seems unlikely to return to the majors until after the All-Star break.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Could begin rehab after homestand
Donovan (groin) ran sprints on the field Monday and will be re-evaluated after the Mariners' homestand to determine whether he's ready to begin a rehab assignment, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
The Mariners' homestand runs through Sunday, so Donovan is at least a week from playing in games. That timeline seemingly rules him out for a return before the All-Star break, though he could conceivably be ready for the start of the second half if all goes well. Donovan has been limited to just 25 games this season due to a recurring groin injury.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Starts running progression
Donovan (groin) began a running progression Tuesday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Donovan has been sidelined since suffering a left groin strain in mid-May, and he's now set to start running again. Based on the injury, the running program is the largest hurdle for the 29-year-old to clear, and it's expected to last between 10 days and two weeks. If all goes well, Donovan would then be in a position to begin a minor-league rehab assignment.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: 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.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Hits IL with groin strain
The Mariners placed Donovan on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left groin muscle strain, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Donovan had already been left out of the starting nine for a second straight game Sunday against the Padres, but he'll now wind up being shelved until at least May 26 while he tends to an aggravation of the injury that previously sent him to the IL back on April 20. In a corresponding move, the Mariners called up top prospect Colt Emerson from Triple-A Tacoma. Emerson will start at third base Sunday in his MLB debut and should serve as the top option at the position while Donovan is on the shelf.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: 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.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Scratched due to load management
Donovan (undisclosed) was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Padres as part of a load-management decision by Mariners manager Dan Wilson, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Donovan has been dealing with a lingering groin injury this season, which caused him to land on the 10-day injured list in late April. He was reinstated from the IL on May 7 and has gone 6-for-28 (.214) with two runs since his return, but Donovan is considered day-to-day in the short term. That means Leo Rivas should see more work at third base on days when Donovan rests.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Scratched Saturday
Donovan was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Padres.
It's unclear why the Mariners took Donovan out of the lineup, but the team will likely offer an explanation in the near future. In the meantime, Leo Rivas will fill the void at third base and bat eighth.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Taking seat Wednesday
Donovan is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
Since returning from the injured list Friday, Donovan hasn't experienced any reported setbacks with the strained groin that forced him to the shelf April 20. Consider his absence from the lineup Wednesday a maintenance day, as the Mariners are presumably aiming to ease Donovan back into an everyday role coming off the injury. Leo Rivas will step in at third base in place of Donovan, who has gone 2-for-18 with a walk and a run scored since being reinstated from the IL.

Mariners' Brendan Donovan: Reinstated from injured list
The Mariners activated Donovan (groin) from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Donovan has been sidelined for nearly three weeks with a left groin strain, but he's been cleared to return to action after playing one rehab game. The 29-year-old was slashing .304/.437/.518 with three home runs and a 9:12 BB:K before getting hurt. Donovan will re-take third base for the Mariners, shifting Leo Rivas to a utility infielder role.
