Yankees' Josh Donaldson diagnosed with high-grade calf strain

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson could be done for the rest of the season after an MRI revealed a high-grade strain to his right calf.

Donaldson said the injury, evaluated by two doctors, was diagnosed as at least a Grade 2-plus right calf strain, and a possible Grade 3 strain -- high enough of a grade to be considered a tear.

Donaldson, speaking to reporters before Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels, said he has not been given a timetable on when he might be able to return and doesn't know whether he has a chance to make it back this season.
