Brendan Donovan on Concussion IL After Batting Cage Incident
The Cardinals infielder was placed on the concussion IL after being struck in a batting cage; no timetable for his return appears in the report.
Brendan Donovan is on the concussion IL after being struck during a batting cage incident, per Daniel Kramer at MLB.com — a reminder that the sport's hazards don't always wait for game time.
The Cardinals placed Donovan on the list following the mishap. No timetable for his return appears in the report.
The Cardinals' injury picture
St. Louis has been navigating a crowded IL in recent days. Hunter Dobbins was placed on the IL with a right flexor strain, Everson Pereira had x-rays that showed no break but left his hand swollen and painful, and Masyn Winn was not expected to play as recently as Sunday. Donovan's concussion IL placement adds another name to a roster that has been reshuffling with some regularity.
A bullpen session worth watching
The same report notes that Woo threw a bullpen session, flagging it as a sign of progress. Whether this represents a return from injury or a scheduled maintenance outing is not specified in the material — worth monitoring for further updates.
What to watch: any timetable on Donovan's concussion protocol, and what Woo's bullpen work signals about his next step.
