Canha went 2-for-3 with an RBI groundout, a walk and a run in a win over the Tigers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Canha came through with his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 26 in the low-scoring victory, snapping out of the 3-for-23 slump that had encompassed his previous eight games in the process. The veteran has been a valuable contributor with both the glove and bat, and with his 52nd RBI of the season Sunday, he tied the second-highest total of his career in that category.

Canha, who went 0-for-3 with two walks in an extra-innings loss to the Tigers on Friday, started in right field and will primarily be stationed there for the foreseeable future due to the return of Ramon Laureano (lower leg), Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The versatile Canha has made himself an everyday fixture in large part due to his bat, which has produced a career-best .269/.393/.526 line (415 plate appearances). However, the equally impressive Laureano's return to action Friday moves Canha over into the corner outfield for the moment, although an eventual return by Stephen Piscotty (ankle) would presumably lead to some form of platoon between him and Canha over the last couple weeks of the regular season.

Canha went 1-for-3 with an RBI single, a bases-loaded walk and a run in a win over the Angels on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Canha hasn't been swinging quite as hot a bat recently as he did at one point in August, but he's still managed to reach safely in 20 consecutive games. The veteran doesn't have a multi-hit effort since Aug. 26 after generating seven in the nine games prior, yet he's still sporting a career-best .272/.394/.533 line across 409 plate appearances.

Canha went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 10-5 loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Canha's solo shot to lead off the second inning was the Athletics' biggest hit of the night off Giants starter Madison Bumgarner. Canha has reached the 20-homer plateau for the first time in his career, adding a .272/.388/.527 line with 55 runs scored and 44 RBI. He's on an eight-game hitting streak, in which he's gone 14-for-32 (.438) with three homers, nine RBI and five runs scored.

Canha went 2-for-3 with a double, a solo home run and two runs overall in a win over the Yankees on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Canha helped answer a Gary Sanchez first-inning solo home run with his own bases-empty blast in the home half of the frame. The 30-year-old is swinging a blistering hot bat in August, posting eight multi-hit efforts, five extra-base hits (two doubles, one triple, two homers), nine RBI, eight walks, two stolen bases and eight runs. The surge has pushed Canha's season line to .266/.386/.521, with all three components qualifying as career bests.

Canha, who went 2-for-4 with three RBI from a pair of run-scoring singles in Saturday's win over the Astros, is now hitting .340 (17-for-50) in August, boosting his season average 17 points to .262.
EDGE Analysis
Canha's current figure is his best since he was sitting at a .333 average after the second game of the season. The veteran has already rapped out seven multi-hit efforts during the current month, and he's just two RBI away from equaling the 10 he compiled in all of July. Canha has also been highly valuable defensively, putting in time at first base and all three outfield spots in addition to designated hitter.

Canha went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 win over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Canha had missed Thursday's series opener with a hand injury, but it didn't seem to bother him at all Friday, as he opened the scoring with a solo shot off Astros start Justin Verlander in the fifth inning. Canha also played all 13 innings in the contest. For the year, the utility man is hitting .258/.381/.509 with a career-high 18 homers, as well as 36 RBI and 52 runs scored across 275 at-bats.
