Mark Canha Hitting The Bench Wednesday
1 year agoNew York Mets outfielder Mark Canha is back on the bench Wednesday night against the Chicago White Sox and right-hander Touki Toussaint. The veteran went 1-for-3 with a pair of strikeouts in Tuesday's 11-10 win over the White Sox but will sit on Wednesday while Jeff McNeil takes over in right field. It's been a nice season for the former Oakland Athletic as Canha is hitting .244 with six homers, seven stolen bases, a 10.5% BB%, and a .742 OPS across 79 contests, good for a healthy 111 wRC+. However, he hasn't recorded a multi-hit effort in seven straight starts and has just one such effort since June 11. His lack of impact power has kept him off the fantasy radar this season.
