Availability
The Rangers released OF Mark Canha.
Fantasy Impact
The Rangers granted Canha’s request to be released. He'll seek another opportunity.
Veteran outfielder Mark Canha will remain with the organization after being told he will not make the Opening Day roster.
Fantasy Impact
Canha hasn't officially been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock, but it would seemingly be the likeliest destination for the veteran. Canha has logged 1,095 big leagued games in his career, hitting .248 with 121 homers, 50 stolen bases, and a .755 OPS, good for a 113 wRC+ that pegs his bat 13% above the league average throughout the course of his career.
Canha slashed .300/.333/.525 this spring but was beat out by Andrew McCutchen for a roster spot in Texas. He has indicated he does not intend to accept a Triple-A assignment.
Fantasy Impact
Canha will remain with the Rangers through their final exhibition game Tuesday before pursuing opportunities with another major-league club.
The Rangers signed Mark Canha to a minor league contract.
Fantasy Impact
The deal includes an invite to spring training. Canha hit .212 with just one home run across 46 games with the Royals last season. He'll enter spring training competing for a roster spot in a depth role with Texas.
The Kansas City Royals activated Mark Canha from the 10-day injured list on Monday and designated him for assignment.
Fantasy Impact
With the Royals not having much playing time for him on the big league roster, they have elected to designate him for assignment to allow him to explore other opportunities. He has posted a .212/.272/.265 slash line across 113 at-bats this season.
