Fantasy Impact
Although there has yet to be a decision, Canning is visiting the back specialist to determine if he needs surgery. Canning originally injured his back last July and has been slow to progress in his rehabilitation. Prior to the injury last year he was 5-4 with a 5.60 ERA and 62 strikeouts through 13 starts. There's currently no timetable for his return.
