The Oakland A’s placed 1B/OF Mark Canha on the 10-day injured list, the team announced Monday. To take his place on the roster, reliever Ryan Buchter was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas.
The diagnosis for Canha is a sprained right wrist. He exited Sunday’s game in the 8th inning due to the injury. The wrist “had been bothering him for a couple days,” reports Julian McWilliams of The Athletic.
Canha, 2019: 8-for-40, 113 wRC+, 2 HR, 11 BB, 13 Ks
The right-handed hitter is off to a promising start this season, at least in what little playing time he’s been able to find.
