Player review: Mark Canha
2024 stats (w/Giants): 32 G, 85 PA, .288/ .376/ .329/ .705 OPS, .041 ISO
Mark Canha was the big acquisition at the trade deadline which says about all you need to know about the 2024 San Francisco Giants in early August. Positionally on the cusp with only a handful of games out of the third Wild Card spot, and a compelling starting rotation finally at somewhat full strength, but the shuffling of cards with dumping contracts like Jorge Soler, holding on to Blake Snell — all sleight of a hand. Look busy while standing pat. A buyer, a contender, in name only.
