Mark Canha Expected To Be A First Baseman, Designated Hitter
1 month agoMilwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Mark Canha is expected to see most of his time as a first baseman and a designated hitter. Canha signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers last week and was invited to spring training. Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel noted that Canha could also be deployed off the bench as a pinch-hitter. The 36-year-old has spent most of his 10-year MLB career in the outfield but is slated to shift to the infield in Milwaukee. Last season, Canha spent time with the Tigers and Giants and held a .242/.344/.346 line with 20 doubles and seven home runs. If Canha performs well in the camp, he could earn a role operating as the No. 2 first baseman behind Rhys Hoskins or as a designated hitter in a platoon role.
