Donaldson left Friday's game against the Reds at the beginning of the second inning with a right calf cramp, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson was replaced defensively by Ehire Adrianza to begin the second inning, and his initial diagnosis revealed a right calf issue. The third baseman missed all of August with right calf tightness. He's currently considered day-to-day but could be replaced by Adrianza or Marwin Gonzalez if he misses additional time.

Donaldson left Friday's game against the Reds with an apparent injury, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's not clear what injury Donaldson could be dealing with, but he was replaced by Ehire Adrianza at third base to begin the second inning. Whether Donaldson misses additional time remains to be seen.

Donaldson went 2-for-3 with a pair of walks in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson was good at getting on base, but he wasn't able to generate any runs himself. The 34-year-old has a .243/.380/.514 slash line after the productive outing. He's added six homers, 11 RBI and 13 runs scored in 25 games.

Donaldson went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a victory over the Cubs on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson wasn't in the starting lineup, but he came on as a pinch hitter with the bases loaded in the seventh inning. Though he hit into a fielder's choice in that at-bat, the slugger had a more successful result when he slammed a solo homer to right field in the ninth frame. Donaldson's is slashing .225/.356/.507 with six homers and 11 RBI on the season.

Donaldson isn't starting Saturday against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson started the last 11 games, logging a .341 OBP with three home runs and five RBI during that time. He'll get a breather Saturday as Ehire Adrianza takes over at third base.

Donaldson was ejected during the sixth inning of Thursday's game against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old gave the Twins a 3-2 lead after hitting a solo homer to start the sixth inning, but he was ejected when he kicked dirt on home plate. Donaldson was unhappy about a strike call earlier in the at-bat, and he returned for some additional dirt kicking to express his displeasure before leaving the field.

Donaldson went 2-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run during a 7-3 win over the Cardinals in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran slugger took Carlos Martinez deep in the third inning for his third homer of the year, and Donaldson then followed up that performance by going 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in the nightcap. The 34-year-old has now gone yard twice in eight games since returning from a calf injury, and Tuesday's effort boosted his slash line on the year to .244/.396/.512 through 15 contests.

Donaldson is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson just returned from a calf injury earlier in the week and it makes sense that the Twins wouldn't want to push their luck with the 34-year-old. Ehire Adrianza will take over at third base and bat eighth against right-hander Casey Mize.

Donaldson will not start the second half of Friday's doubleheader against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson hit a solo shot in the Twins' 2-0 win in the first game of the day, but it's not a surprise to see that the oft-injured veteran won't be tasked with making two starts in one day. Ehire Adrianza will handle the hot corner in his absence.

Donaldson went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI during Wednesday's victory over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson, who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's game against the White Sox, wasted no time in contributing to his team's win, knocking in a two-run double off Reynaldo Lopez in the second inning. The 34-year-old third baseman missed the month of August with a strained right calf and should continue to make an immediate impact on Minnesota's lineup.
