"Canha, 37, signed a minor league deal with the Rangers in February. He had a solid spring, slashing .286/.318/.500, but didn't break camp with the club."
"Despite the health, there are some gaps in the performance. McCutchen isn't out to a great start, working primarily as the short side of a designated hitter platoon."
"Theoretically, Canha could be subbed in for McCutchen in that role, since he is also a veteran righty bat."
Canha, a veteran player, signed a minor league deal with the Rangers but did not make the final roster. He opted to stay in extended spring training to maintain readiness while being close to family. The Rangers have not faced injuries among position players, and McCutchen's performance has been subpar. Canha could potentially replace McCutchen in the lineup, but the team has not made that move yet.
