SEATTLE — The Mariners have acquired All-Star infielder/outfielder Brendan Donovan from the Cardinals, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press. According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, the Cardinals received switch pitcher Jurrangelo Cijntje (the Mariners’ No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline) and outfielder Tai Peete (No. 11) from the Mariners, Rays prospect Colton Ledbetter (the Rays’ No. 24 prospect), and two competitive-balance Round B picks in the deal. The Rays acquired infielder Ben Williamson from the Mariners. Donovan, 29, was a first-time All-Star last year, when he hit .287 with 10 home runs, 50 RBIs and a .775 OPS. Over a four-year major league career, Donovan has hit .282 with a .772 OPS, 40 home runs and 97 doubles. Donovan also won a utility player Gold Glove as a rookie in 2022.
