Giants' Mark Canha: To IL with thumb sprain
Canha was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a right thumb sprain.
Canha has played his final game of 2024 and will enter free agency this offseason. The righty-hitting 35-year-old will be eligible at first base and outfield in fantasy next year, but he only managed seven home runs and seven steals in 462 plate appearances this season.

Giants' Mark Canha: Logs steal in win
Canha went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Monday's 6-3 win over the Diamondbacks.
Canha hasn't seen much more than a short-side platoon role since he was traded from the Tigers to the Giants at the deadline. He's batting .282 with San Francisco, though he has just two extra-base hits (both doubles) and four RBI across 30 games with the team. Overall, Canha has a .240/.343/.343 slash line with seven home runs, 42 RBI, 45 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 123 games this season.

Giants' Mark Canha: Swipes sixth bag in loss
Canha went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Saturday's loss to the Padres. He was also hit by a pitch.
Canha got beaned by Joe Musgrove in his first trip to the plate and added a single his second time around before stealing second. The theft was his sixth of the campaign and his first this month. The outfielder has now hit safely in each of his last two games but is batting just .231 (3-for-13) in September with one RBI, two walks and a stolen base.

Giants' Mark Canha: Logs steal in loss
Canha went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Marlins.
Canha has been mostly limited to a short-side platoon role since he was traded from the Tigers to the Giants, but he got a rare start versus a right-hander amid LaMonte Wade's slump. Since the trade, Canha has gone 13-for-47 (.277) with no home runs, three RBI, three runs scored and two doubles. He's at a .237/.340/.346 slash line with seven homers, five steals, 41 RBI, 45 runs scored and 19 doubles over 432 plate appearances this season, which has him on pace for one of the worst years of his career.

Giants' Mark Canha: Collects four hits, drives in two
Canha went 4-for-6 with a double and two RBI Thursday against the Nationals.
Canha made his biggest impact since being acquired by the Giants, driving in two and collecting his first four-hit game since 2022 while a member of the Mets. The veteran outfielder started three of the four games in Washington and has now collected seven hits in 15 at-bats since arriving from Detroit at the trade deadline.

Giants' Mark Canha: Filling short-side platoon role
Canha is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Canha has now started just once in four games since joining the Giants after being acquired from the Tigers on Tuesday. The right-handed-hitting Canha's lone start came Friday versus Reds lefty Andrew Abbott, with the other three absences coming while the Giants have faced right-handed pitching. Canha looks like he'll have to settle for a short-side platoon role while the Giants have all their key lineup contributors at full health.

Giants' Mark Canha: Sitting Wednesday
Canha isn't in the Giants' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Canha was traded from Detroit to San Francisco on Tuesday, but he will have to wait until Friday to make his Giants debut in Cincinnati. Marco Luciano will start as the designated hitter Wednesday while Brett Wisely starts at second base.

Giants' Mark Canha: Heading to San Francisco
The Tigers traded Canha to the Giants on Tuesday in exchange for pitching prospect Eric Silva, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Canha is returning to the Bay Area after spending the first seven years of his career in Oakland, but this time he's bound for the other side of the Bay. He was a good bet to be dealt before the deadline, hence his omission from the starting lineup for the Tigers in Tuesday's game versus the Guardians. In July, the 35-year-old has slashed .250/.344/.385 with one home run. Canha has started 31 games at first base, 33 in the outfield and 31 as the designated hitter this season. The Giants recently parted with Jorge Soler, who started in 92 games at DH, in a trade with Atlanta, potentially opening up a path to regular playing time for Canha.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Not in lineup Tuesday
Canha is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Guardians, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Canha is a good bet to be dealt before Tuesday's trade deadline, so it's not a surprise to see his name absent from the Tigers' lineup card. Detroit will go with Justyn-Henry Malloy in left field and Colt Keith in the designated-hitter spot.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Drives in two in win
Canha went 1-for-2 with a walk and two RBI in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Twins.
Canha batted cleanup and helped lead Detroit to a comfortable win. The veteran has been solid lately, as he's batting .310 over his last 10 games with one home run, five RBI and six runs scored. Canha is a potential trade candidate before Tuesday's deadline, as he's on the last year of his contract, and he would give a contending team a proven MLB hitter who batted .260 or better each of the last two seasons, though he's slumped a bit this year with a .233 average overall.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Moving to bench Thursday
Canha is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.
Canha will cede his spot in the lineup to Zach McKinstry, who gets the nod at third base while Matt Vierling shifts to the outfield. After going 0-for-22 over a six-game stretch from June 25 through July 2, Canha has bounced back over the ensuing three weeks, slashing .306/.390/.500 over 11 games. As a veteran on an expiring contract, Canha could be a prime candidate to get moved elsewhere ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline while the 50-53 Tigers likely find themselves in the sellers camp.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Records three hits in win
Canha went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 8-2 win over the Guardians.
Canha hasn't really gotten going this season, as he's batting just .236 overall, but he's riding a modest three-game hitting streak and is batting .303 in July. The veteran did miss some time earlier this month due to hip and wrist issues, but he seems healthy coming out of the All-Star break and should continue to see regular playing time for the Tigers.

Tigers' Mark Canha: On bench for series finale
Canha is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Canha's playing time had been trending down heading into the All-Star break due to lingering wrist soreness and general ineffectiveness at the plate, but he picked up starts in both of the Tigers' first two games in Toronto, going 2-for-7 with a home run and two walks. He'll take a seat Sunday while the Tigers clear room in the lineup for Justyn-Henry Malloy at designated hitter and Bligh Madris at first base, but manager A.J. Hinch hasn't seemed to cut bait with Canha as a near-everyday player just yet.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Goes deep in return
Canha (wrist) went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jays.
Canha missed the last game before the All-Star break with a sore wrist but was able to return following the long layoff. The veteran outfielder hasn't really gotten going yet for the Tigers, as he's batting just .229 with a .688 OPS in his first season with the team. Last year, Canha batted .262 with a .755 OPS for the Brewers and Mets. He had an OPS of .700 or better in each of the previous six seasons, so he'll need a strong finish in 2024 to keep that streak alive.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Returns to lineup
Canha (wrist) will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth in Friday's game against the Blue Jays.
Canha tweaked his right wrist in the second-to-last game before the All-Star break and didn't play Sunday, but he's ready to roll after getting some rest. The 35-year-old will enter the second half having slashed just .130/.250/.167 in his last 17 games.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Hopes to return after break
Canha (wrist) said Sunday that he will rest and do treatment over the All-Star break and hopes to be able to play in Detroit's first game of the second half next Friday in Toronto, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Canha exited Saturday's 11-9 extra-inning win over the Dodgers early due to a sore wrist and isn't in the lineup for Sunday's series finale, though Jason Beck of MLB.com notes that the veteran is available in an emergency situation. Canha doesn't look like he'll need a trip to the injured list, especially with the extra rest afforded by the All-Star break.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Not in lineup Sunday
Canha (wrist) isn't in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Canha was removed for a pinch hitter in Saturday's contest due to a sore wrist and will begin Sunday's game on the bench. It isn't clear if he's available to pinch hit. Sunday is the final day before the All-Star break, so Canha will have an opportunity to recover before Detroit's next game Friday, July 19.

Tigers' Mark Canha: Battling sore wrist
Canha was removed from Saturday's game against the Dodgers due to right wrist soreness, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Canha reached base on an error and scored during the second inning of Saturday's victory, but Jake Rogers entered to pinch hit for him in the fourth. Canha's status for Sunday's series finale remains unclear, though the Tigers may opt to sit him so that he'll have plenty of time to heal during the All-Star break.
