Brendan Donovan Fully Recovered from Abdominal Surgery, Trade Expected

St. Louis Cardinals utility player Brendan Donovan is a "full go" in offseason workouts after undergoing abdominal surgery on Oct. 7. He played through an injury for much of the second half before being shut down. Donovan's offseason workouts are no longer restricted, and he is expected to be 100 percent for spring training. However, he is widely expected to be traded this offseason, with the Giants and Mariners reportedly leading interested teams.
