Heading to San Francisco The Tigers traded Canha to the Giants on Tuesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Impact Canha is returning to the Bay Area, but for the other side of the bay. He was a good bet to be dealt before the deadline, hence why he was omitted from the starting lineup for the Tigers in Tuesday's game versus the Guardians. In July, the 35-year-old has slashed .250/.344/.385 with one home run. Canha has started 31 games at first base and 33 games in the outfield for the season.

Not in lineup Tuesday Canha is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Guardians, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Canha is a good bet to be dealt before Tuesday's trade deadline, so it's not a surprise to see his name absent from the Tigers' lineup card. Detroit will go with Justyn-Henry Malloy in left field and Colt Keith in the designated hitter spot.
