Josh Donaldson Hoping To Return This Season
1 year agoNew York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (calf) has been taking ground balls and batting practice recently and is hoping to return before the end of the 2023 season. The calf has long been bothersome for the 2015 AL MVP winner as Donaldson has made multiple trips to the injured list with the issue. The 37-year-old has been a lightning rod for an underperforming Yankees offense as he's struggled to a .142 batting average alongside a .659 OPS across 34 games. He does, however, have 10 home runs to his credit in just 120 trips to the plate but his 74 wRC+ remains 26% below the league average.
