Tigers Pick Up Mark Canha's Option
1 year agoThe Detroit Tigers picked up the 2024 options on outfielder Mark Canha ($11.5 million) and catcher Carson Kelly ($3.5 million) on Monday. It's no surprise the Tigers picked up Canha's option after acquiring him on Saturday from the Milwaukee Brewers. The 34-year-old has a career .349 on-base percentage and hit a combined .262/.355/.400 slash line with 11 home runs, 25 doubles, a triple, 62 RBI, 11 stolen bases and 51 runs scored in 139 games with the Brewers and New York Mets in 2023. While Canha doesn't offer the most intriguing fantasy profile entering the 2024 campaign, he should have the opportunity for plenty of playing time between the outfield and designated hitter in Detroit. Kelly, 29, hit .206 (28-for-136) with two homers and 13 RBI in 50 games with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Detroit this year. He'll enter next year as the primary backup to Jake Rogers.
