Canha went 1-for-3 with a grand slam and two walks Saturday in an 8-2 victory versus the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Canha set the tone early for the Tigers with a second-inning grand slam off Houston starter Cristian Javier. It was a much-needed big hit for the veteran slugger, who had gone 2-for-24 without an RBI while striking out nine times over his previous six games. The grand slam was the third of Canha's career.

Canha (illness) is batting third as the Tigers' designated hitter for Friday's game against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Canha has been dealing with an upper respiratory illness and missed a pair of games due to the issue. However, he seems to be on the mend, as he'll be making his first appearance since May 6.

Canha (illness) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Cleveland, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Canha was held out of Tuesday's 11-7 win due to an upper-respiratory illness and will sit out again Wednesday. The Tigers are off Thursday, so Canha will perhaps be ready to roll for Friday's series opener versus the Astros. Colt Keith will get the start at designated hitter Wednesday in Canha's stead.

Canha is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Canha started the previous seven games and hit .407 with three doubles and two homers during that span, but he'll take a seat for Tuesday's matinee. Riley Greene will receive a turn at designated hitter while Wenceel Perez gets a start in the outfield.

Canha isn't in the Tigers' lineup Saturday against the Twins.

Canha went 2-for-3 with two walks, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 9-7 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Canha continues to provide steady production for the Tigers, as he has an .837 OPS across 18 games. The veteran outfielder recorded a .755 OPS last season and he's actually only finished above .800 once during his career, which came back in 2019 when he posted a .913 OPS and hit a career-high 26 home runs with the Athletics. Even if he slips into the .700 range, Canha should remain a solid if not spectacular fantasy asset.

Canha is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
It looks to be a routine day off for the veteran outfielder. With Canha getting some rest, Riley Greene will be in left field and Wenceel Perez will handle right.

EDGE Analysis
Canha put the Tigers in front early with a solo home run in the bottom of the first inning. He later walked and came around to score on a Matt Vierling single during the fifth frame before driving in Jake Rogers on an RBI single of his own in the sixth. The 35-year-old outfielder is now slashing .243/.404/.541 with three homers and six RBI across his first 47 plate appearances with the Tigers.
