Canha went 2-for-3 with an RBI single and double in Sunday's 5-4 Cactus League win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Canha's solid spring continued Sunday, with the outfielder driving home Ryon Healy with a single to deep right center in the first for his second RBI of spring. Factoring in Sunday's production, the 28-year-old is slashing .333/.375/.533 with three doubles over 15 at-bats across six games. With platoon mate Matt Joyce (.400/.500/1.000 over 10 at-bats) also thriving thus far, the A's appear to be in excellent shape in right field for the coming campaign.

Canha went 1-for-2 with an RBI double and walk in Sunday's 5-3 Cactus League loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Canha brought home Eric Young, Jr. and Alejandro De Aza in the third with a double to left, drawing the A's even with the Angels at 1-1 at the time. The right fielder, who'll platoon with offseason acquisition Matt Joyce this season, hit out of the two-hole Sunday and has looked strong this spring after missing the majority of 2016 with a hip injury.

Canha, who missed the majority of last season due to hip surgery, has earned strong praise from manager Bob Melvin for his performance in early workouts, Joe Stiglich of CSN Bay Area reports. "He worked hard in the offseason. His swing looks good," Melvin said. "He looks like he's in great shape and I think he's out to prove a serious point this year - that he can be a very productive guy at the big league level, as we've seen before."
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old saw only 44 plate appearances in 2016 before his injury, which prevented him from building on a solid rookie campaign the season prior. Canha, who's slated to platoon with newcomer Matt Joyce in right field this season, will draw the start in left field and hit cleanup in Saturday's Cactus League opener versus the Cubs.

Canha (hip) added 10 pounds this offseason and won't be limited in any way this spring, MLB.com's Jane Lee reports.
EDGE Analysis
He underwent hip surgery in May and missed the rest of the season, but his recovery has gone well and he said Friday that he feels great. While he is right-handed, he boasts reverse platoon splits, so it is unclear exactly how the A's will use him in 2017, as Yonder Alonso figures to start at first base against righties.

Canha (hip) will begin swinging off a tee Tuesday, John Hickey of the Bay Area News Group reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hip surgery ended Canha's season in May. This news, however, indicates that he is on pace for a return come spring training next season, where his versatility between the outfield and first base should allow him to contend for a roster spot in Oakland once again.

Canha (hip) underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair an impingement and torn labrum, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday's surgery will officially put an end to Canha's 2016 campaign after being diagnosed with hip issues in mid-May. In his absence, Yonder Alonso figures to see a good portion of the starts at first base, but the likes of Stephen Vogt, Matt McBride, and Billy Butler will also factor into the equation for the rest of the season.

Canha will have hip surgery and is out for the rest of the season, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.
EDGE Analysis
Canha has struggled all season with the injury, only hitting .122 in 41 at-bats prior to being placed on the DL in early May. After a 16-homer 2015 campaign, Canha figured to be part of the A's offense in 2016, but will now have to wait until 2017 to make an impact with the club. The rehab is expected to be six months and barring any setbacks, he should be ready for spring training 2017.

Canha is dealing with both a lower back strain and a left hip impingement, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports. He will seek a second opinion, but Lee is reporting that his hip injury could require surgery.
EDGE Analysis
According to CSN California, Canha's hip issue is not related to his labrum, but it is still significant enough to where surgery is in the realm of possibility. If Canha ultimately undergoes hip surgery, his season would be over, which would leave the already embattled A's even thinner.

Canha (back strain) was placed on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Canha dealt with a sore back early in spring training, but no further issues were reported until Monday. He has only started two games in May, and his at-bats will likely be divided between multiple players.

Canha is dealing with some tightness in his back, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old was in the lineup Sunday for the second time this month, but with the soreness creeping up he'll be held out of action Monday. Canha should be considered day-to-day, though it's worth noting that he also battled back soreness a couple months ago during spring training.
