Sun Jul 16 202314:04Jeimer Candelario A Late Scratch On Sunday
Updating a previous report, Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (thumb) was a late scratch for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He was originally in the lineup, after missing both ends of Saturday's doubleheader, but was scratched after taking some swings and handling groundballs during pregame warmups. Apparently, the thumb is still bothering him so Ildemaro Vargas will start at third base in his place. The Nationals should provide an update on Candelario following Sunday's game.

Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (thumb) is back in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the St. Louis Cardinals. Candelario missed Saturday's doubleheader while dealing with a bruised right thumb but he's ready to rock on Sunday, starting at the hot corner and batting third against Jack Flaherty. He's been a hot topic on the trade market of late, slashing .260/.336/.477 with 13 home runs, 43 RBI, and five stolen bases across 323 at-bats.

Sat Jul 15 202301:08Jeimer Candelario Dealing With Bruised Thumb
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (thumb) is dealing with a bone bruise in his right thumb, according to manager Dave Martinez. Candelario injured the thumb during a pre-game defensive drills, and it felt worse when he attempted to swing on Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals in his first and only at-bat of the night. Some folks were wondering whether Candelario had been traded as the reason for him departing the contest early on, but it was actually an injury. Fantasy managers shouldn't be shocked if the 29-year-old is out on Saturday, and it could cause him to go on the injured list, which would be bad news for his trade value ahead of the Aug. 1 deadline. The switch-hitter came entered the second half of the season hitting .261 (84-for-322) with 13 homers, 43 RBI, five steals and 46 runs scored this year. His fantasy value could improve significantly with a move to a contender in the second half.

Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (knee) is back in the lineup on Saturday against the Texas Rangers. The 29-year-old missed Friday's contest with knee soreness but he's back in the lineup for this one, serving as the Nats' DH and batting third against Andrew Heaney. Candelario has been a solid contributor this season and is a likely trade candidate as the deadline is fast approaching. He owns a .261/.339/.475 triple-slash line with 12 home runs, 40 RBI, and five stolen bases over 314 at-bats on the year.

Fri Jul 7 202318:47Jeimer Candelario Out Of The Lineup
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (knee) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Texas Rangers. The 29-year-old will sit out this contest after getting hit in the knee by a pitch during Thursday's game. The expectation is that this is a day-to-day issue, so hopefully Candelario will avoid a trip to the injured list. Ildemaro Vargas will take over at third base and bat fifth Friday versus left-hander Cody Bradford.

Tue Jul 4 202300:22Jeimer Candelario Hits 12th Homer Of Season Monday
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario continued to hit well in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Reds. Candelario went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, and a strikeout. The 29-year-old has been a productive player this season, slashing .265/.341/.483 with 12 HR, 40 RBI, and four stolen bases. Candelario is rostered in just 31 percent of leagues but could be a useful corner infield option for fantasy managers, especially if he were to be traded to a stronger offense.

Thu Jun 29 202316:22Jeimer Candelario Available On Trade Market
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario, who could potentially be an All-Star this year, is available on the trade market, according to sources. According to Wins Above Replacement, Candelario has been the most valuable third baseman in the National League this year. The 29-year-old has a good chance of being dealt before the Aug. 1 deadline, as he will be a free agent after this season and the Nationals aren't contenders this year. Candelario would surely be an upgrade for a contender at the hot corner, and he's been useful in fantasy this year as well with a .263 average (76-for-289) with 10 home runs, 26 doubles, two triples, 38 RBI, four steals and 40 runs scored in 76 games. He would also most likely see a boost in his fantasy value if he lands with a contender in the second half.

Mon Jun 19 202313:59Jeimer Candelario Returns On Monday
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (thumb) is back at third base and is hitting third in the batting order on Monday against St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Jack Flaherty. Candelario suffered a bone bruise in his thumb on Saturday and didn't play on Sunday, but he'll wind up only missing one game over the weekend. The 29-year-old former Detroit Tiger has been sluggish with the lumber so far in June, going 10-for-46 (.217) with six doubles, one home run, five RBI, a stolen base and seven runs scored so far in 13 games played. However, he is currently on a three-game hitting streak in which he's gone 6-for-12 (.500) with four doubles and a stolen base.

Sat Jun 3 202315:02Jeimer Candelario Stays Hot With Two More Knocks
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and three RBI as the team hung on for an 8-7 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. The 29-year-old has been spectacular at the dish over his last 61 at-bats, slashing a robust .410/.486/.754 with 13 runs scored, 13 extra-base hits, and 14 RBI across this 16-game span. Candelario has nine multi-hit games during the sizzling stretch as well. The infielder led the major leagues with 42 doubles not long ago in 2021. Candelario is worth streaming even outside of NL-only settings while he's swinging a hot bat. He gets the benefit of hitting third or fourth most days on the rebuilding Nats, who have been surprisingly decent offensively in 2023.

Fri May 12 202315:05Jeimer Candelario Returns Against Mets
Washington Nationals third baseman Jeimer Candelario (ankle) is back in the starting lineup on Friday against right-hander Tylor Megill and the New York Mets. He's starting at the hot corner and batting sixth in the lineup. Candelario hurt his ankle while sliding in Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants and had to be removed early, but he'll return to action on Friday after having Thursday off. The 29-year-old hasn't been much of a force offensively so far this year and has gone just 1-for-12 with a double in his last three games played. Overall, Candelario is hitting a weak .216 (30-for-139) with eight doubles, four home runs, 14 RBI and 13 runs scored in his first 35 games for the Nationals.

While he won't be consistently productive in other statistical areas, at least category managers can get something from him.

Fri Nov 18 202221:35Jeimer Candelario Among Tigers Non-Tenders
The Detroit Tigers have declined to tender a contract to third baseman Jeimer Candelario, as well as utility men Harold Castro and Willi Castro, among others. After coming up with the Cubs in 2016, Candelario was traded to Detroit and has spent nearly six seasons with the Tigers. He's had some ups and downs, with his best season coming in 2020 when he recorded an .872 OPS with seven homers in 206 plate appearances. He was at his lowest in 2022, slashing .217/.272/.361 with 13 home runs in 467 plate appearances. He'll look to resurrect his career somewhere new in the spring.

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (illness) has been scratched from Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. The 28-year-old is dealing with a non-COVID related illness. The expectation is that he'll return to the lineup within the next day or two. In the meantime, Kody Clemens will cover third base and bat eighth against right-hander Cal Quantrill. Fantasy managers shouldn't bother considering Clemens as a streaming option for Wednesday.

Tue Jul 26 202200:01Jeimer Candelario Homers Twice Monday
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario was one of the offensive stars of a 12-4 victory over the San Diego Padres on Monday, going 3-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI. Candelario now has nine long balls on the season, three of which have come in his last five games. Although he has a paltry .621 OPS on the season, he's slashed .271/.364/.521 in 54 plate appearances over his last 15 games and could make for a sneaky pickup for fantasy managers in need of cheap power in the second half of the season.

Tue Jun 7 202214:24Jeimer Candelario To IL, Austin Meadows Activated
The Detroit Tigers placed infielder Jeimer Candelario (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a left shoulder subluxation and reinstated outfielder Austin Meadows (illness) from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Candelario's placement on the IL is retroactive to June 6. Meadows has been out due to symptoms of vertigo, and he went 2-for-13 with a home run on a four-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Toledo. He should return to an everyday starting role in Detroit's outfield. Candelario left the game early on Sunday. The 28-year-old hasn't done much for fantasy managers at the plate this year, slashing .181/.236/.319 with five home runs, 17 RBI and 20 runs scored in 182 at-bats.

Sun Jun 5 202213:06Jeimer Candelario Exits Early On Sunday
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (shoulder) left Sunday's contest against the Yankees early after sustaining a left shoulder injury. Josh Donaldson smoked a line drive in the second inning towards Candelario, who tried to make a diving grab, and ended up injuring himself on the play. He was removed from the game shortly thereafter and replaced by Harold Castro. The Tigers should provide an update on Candelario's status following the game but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

Wed May 18 202213:27Jeimer Candelario Homers Tuesday
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays, accounting for the only blemish on Shane McClanahan's line for the evening. Candelario is now slashing .203/.255/.336 with three home runs, 14 runs scored, and 12 RBI for the season. It's been a disappointing start to the year for the slugger, though his .237 BABIP sits well below his career mark of .303, so things should turn around to a certain extent, but fantasy managers who thought Candelario was due to exceed his career-high of 19 home runs may be ready to move on.

Fri Oct 1 202118:12Jeimer Candelario On The Bench Friday
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario isn't in the lineup on Friday for a matchup with the Chicago White Sox and right-handed starter Lance Lynn. The 27-year-old is hitting .271 with a .352 on-base percentage and 16 home runs in 622 plate appearances this season. Instead, it'll be Harold Castro getting the start at third base and batting fifth against the White Sox. Castro is hitting .287 with a .317 on-base percentage and three home runs in 326 plate appearances this season. You're probably better off looking elsewhere for streaming help.
