Canning's $5 million mutual option for 2027 was declined Monday.
The Padres will pay Canning a $1.5 million buyout instead. Canning got a late start to this season as he continued his recovery from Achilles surgery, and he struggled once healthy, logging a 5.68 ERA over 11 starts and 19 relief appearances during the regular season.

The Padres recalled Canning from the Arizona Complex League on Saturday.
Canning was pushed off the active roster Wednesday, but he'll rejoin the Friars' pitching staff as the replacement for Casey Mize (ankle), who landed on the injured list Saturday. Canning carries a 5.57 ERA through 85.2 innings in the majors this season but has been much more effective recently, allowing just one earned run in his last 14.2 frames.

The Padres optioned Canning to the Arizona Complex League on Wednesday.
Canning owns a 5.57 ERA and 1.51 WHIP through 85.2 innings with the Padres this season but has given up just one earned run while striking out 14 batters over his last 14.2 innings. Despite his improved performance, he'll be pushed out of San Diego's bullpen to make room for Jason Adam (shoulder), who returned from the 60-day IL on Wednesday.

Canning (4-9) earned the win over Minnesota on Saturday, allowing three hits and issuing one walk while striking out one batter over 3.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen.
Casey Mize started the game for San Diego but left after just 2.2 frames due to an ankle injury. Canning helped spare the Padres bullpen from exhausting its arms by covering 3.1 innings on 46 pitches (27 strikes). The veteran right-hander limited the Twins to just three hits (all singles) in his longest outing since July 18, which was when he made his final start before being moved to a bulk-relief role. Canning has been much more effective out of the bullpen, and over his past seven appearances he's logged a 3-0 record with a 2.70 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 10:2 K:BB across 13.1 innings.

Canning (3-9) earned the win Sunday against San Francisco. He allowed one run on two hits and no walks without recording a strikeout over two innings of relief.
The right-hander was the third pitcher used by San Diego, and despite covering just two innings while surrendering a solo homer to Osleivis Basabe (forearm), Canning was credited with the win. He has struggled mightily this season in both starting and relief roles, posting a 6.58 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 67:32 K:BB across 67 innings (17 appearances). The 30-year-old's spot on the roster could come into jeopardy if the Padres make any moves to bolster their pitching staff before Monday's trade deadline.

Canning is expected to pitch in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Kyle Hart in Sunday's game against the Giants, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Canning will be available to pitch on three days' rest after he struck out four over three shutout innings of relief in his previous appearance in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Rockies. Hart tossed 2.2 innings as an opener Wednesday, and while he could work a bit deeper into Sunday's outing, he's still unlikely to reach the five innings he would need to hit to qualify for a win. As a result, Canning -- who claimed his second victory of the season Wednesday -- looks like the Padres pitcher most likely to earn a win Sunday.
