The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers are both reportedly pursuing a trade for the same All-Star utilityman from the St. Louis Cardinals.

As the Los Angeles Dodgers appear intent on addressing their bullpen at the MLB trade deadline this season, they also are said to have interest in acquiring a left-handed hitting outfielder.

Helsley has been rumored as a trade target since the offseason, and a trade for him still seems realistic. As we know, Donovan made his first All-Star Game in 2025, is hitting nearly .300 and can play multiple defensive positions. That's a valuable player, and the Cardinals are treating him as one.

On the surface, it’s a clean fit. Donovan is a high-contact, versatile left-handed bat with postseason experience. He’s hitting .296 with nine home runs and a .796 OPS for the Cardinals this season. He just made his first All-Star team. He walks more than he strikes out. He plays everywhere. And he’s under team control through 2027.
