Cardinals' Donovan Diagnosed With Toe Sprain

News summary

St. Louis Cardinals utilityman Brendan Donovan exited Tuesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with discomfort in his left big toe, later diagnosed as a sprained capsule following an MRI. The injury is due to repetitive use, and while Donovan is expected to miss some games, both he and the team are optimistic he can avoid a stint on the injured list, calling it a worst-case scenario. Donovan remains day-to-day and will undergo further evaluation and batting practice before a final decision is made on his status. So far in 2025, Donovan has been a key contributor, hitting .310 with a .819 OPS and 77 hits in 64 games, as the Cardinals sit second in the NL Central. Nolan Gorman has taken over at second base and performed well, with Thomas Saggese a possible call-up if Donovan's absence is extended. The team aims to minimize Donovan's time away from the lineup.
