According to Katie Woo of The Athletic, "The Seattle Mariners and San Francisco Giants have emerged as front-runners for St. Louis Cardinals infielder Brendan Donovan, sources familiar with negotiations tell The Athletic, with the Cardinals looking to land multiple top prospects in a return."

Nick Chubb earned a questionable tag after returning to a limited practice but he's expected to sit out Sunday's game against Arizona.

"The Padres' players in the talks include right-hander Nick Pivetta, outfielder Ramón Laureano and relievers Mason Miller, Adrian Morejon and Jeremiah Estrada. San Diego, in turn, is asking the Mets about their young major leaguers and all of their top prospects, both pitchers and position players."

The Cardinals are looking for top prospects in a Brendan Donovan deal and the Mariners and Giants are competing for the All-Star's services.

But with the task of the Cardinals at hand on their home field, the Texans still won't be overlooking the opposition en route to try and extend the streak to six. And for Houston's star pass-rusher, Will Anderson Jr., that starts with handing some major respect to Jacoby Brissett and what he can do for Arizona's offense.
