Brendan Donovan, second baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals, is currently ranked fifth in the National League All-Star voting for his position. He has seen a drop from fourth place, now trailing behind the Chicago Cubs' Nico Hoerner and the New York Mets' Jeff McNeil. Despite a strong season with a .308 batting average and .806 OPS, Donovan sits over 500,000 votes behind second place, held by his former teammate Tommy Edman. The Los Angeles Dodgers lead the voting, with significant representation across multiple positions.

Donovan's numbers are impressive, especially when compared to Edman's, who despite hitting more home runs and RBIs, has a lower batting average and OPS. The Cardinals also have other players like Willson Contreras and Nolan Arenado in the running, but they are far behind in votes. While Donovan may not secure a starter position through fan voting, his performance could still earn him a reserve spot on the National League roster.
