It looks like one of the most anticipated trades of the offseason is about to be complete. Multiple reports say that the St. Louis Cardinals are close to trading Brendan Donovan to the Seattle Mariners.
I first saw this on MLB Trade Rumors. They point to a report by Katie Woo and Chad Jennings of The Athletic saying that the Cardinals and Mariners are close to completing a Brendan Donovan trade, but Jeff Passan has added a twist to this saying the Tampa Bay Rays are also involved.
This is not a shocker after a report earlier today on MLB Trade Rumors that Seattle President of Baseball Operations Jerry Dipoto said the Mariners were “working on another addition”. It appears Brendan Donovan is that addition.

This is obviously a developing story and will be updated once the deal is finalized and we learn exactly what players are involved. Stay tuned.
