Athletics' Mark Canha: Undergoes successful surgery Tuesday, out for season

Canha (hip) underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair an impingement and torn labrum, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Wednesday's surgery will officially put an end to Canha's 2016 campaign after being diagnosed with hip issues in mid-May. In his absence, Yonder Alonso figures to see a good portion of the starts at first base, but the likes of Stephen Vogt, Matt McBride, and Billy Butler will also factor into the equation for the rest of the season.
