The Oakland A’s offense is in a funk right now, but there’s hope on the horizon as one star hitter is nearing a return to action.
Outfielder Mark Canha has resumed batting and baseball activities, and it’s not out of the question that he could be back from his hip injury before the end of the week, reports Matt Kawahara of the S.F. Chronicle. The previous word last week had been that Canha returning before next week’s All-Star break would be “probably a stretch,” so this newest update is even better than expected.
