Brendan Donovan went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in the Cardinals' narrow 6-5 defeat to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact
His performance today was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing outcome for St. Louis, as Donovan continues to be a reliable source of average and doubles. With a season batting average now sitting at .276 and his ability to drive in runs (71 RBI), he remains a solid option in fantasy lineups, particularly in formats that value contact hitting and doubles. However, his limited home run power and stolen base totals might cap his ceiling in categories leagues. Keep him in mind for consistent, if not spectacular, fantasy value.
Brendan Donovan went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Cardinals' 10-5 victory over the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
His performance included a crucial home run, contributing significantly to the team's offensive surge. This game underscores Donovan's consistent ability to drive in runs, as evidenced by his season RBI total now standing at 66. His batting average remains solid at .270, and his power numbers are respectable with 13 homers on the year. While Donovan isn't stealing many bases, his ability to get on base and score runs (63 runs scored this season) adds valuable points for fantasy managers. His wOBA of .325 indicates he's been an above-average contributor offensively, making him a reliable option in most fantasy formats.
Brendan Donovan went 1-for-1 with a home run and two RBI in the Cardinals' 6-1 win over the Reds.
Fantasy Impact
His performance included a walk and he scored once, contributing significantly in a game that wasn't close. This outing pushes his season RBI count to 63 and his home run total to 12. Donovan's ability to capitalize on limited opportunities, as shown by his solid .272 batting average and .326 wOBA, continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, particularly in formats that reward on-base percentage. His consistent contact and moderate power blend should keep him relevant in mixed leagues, especially given his multi-position eligibility.
