Activated from injured list The Royals reinstated Canha (hip) from the injured list Saturday.

Impact A left abductor strain sent Canha to the injured list April 9, and he'll now rejoin the active roster following a minimum-length stay on the IL. The 36-year-old veteran played three rehab games at Triple-A Omaha, during which he went 2-for-10 with three runs scored. With Canha fully healthy and MJ Melendez now in Triple-A, the former is likely to see increased playing time in left field going forward.

Set to begin rehab assignment Canha (hip) is expected to begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday.

Impact Canha landed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a left abductor strain that he suffered when colliding with the outfield wall while attempting to catch a flyball against the Twins on Tuesday. He's progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment, but it's unclear whether he'll be activated from the IL when eligible April 19. Canha went 5-for-14 with two walks and four runs scored prior to his injury.
