Tallies three hits in win Candelario went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Wednesday's win over the Astros.

Impact Candelario has been locked in lately, as he now has hits in five straight games, and the last three contests have been multi-hit performances. That's allowed the 27-year-old to bump his batting average up to .326, and while he doesn't produce a ton of power, he's been a consistent performer for the Tigers the past few seasons.

Hits first home run Saturday Candelario went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's loss to Cleveland.

Impact Detroit was down 11-1 when Candelario blasted his home run, but he won't complain about his first long ball of the season. The 27-year-old infielder hit seven home runs in 52 games last season. His career best is the 19 homers he recorded across 144 games back in 2018.

Two hits in Tuesday win Candelario went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, a run scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 4-3, 10-inning win over the Twins.

Impact Like he did last season, Candelario is quietly putting together good at-bats and plenty of hits. He's slashing .300/.364/.400 in the early going after recording a .297/.369/.503 line in 2020. Candelario might not jump off the page, but the 27-year-old is turning into a solid if not spectacular fantasy contributor.

Playing well this spring Candelario is batting .353 with an .807 OPS across 14 Grapefruit League games.

Impact Candelario doesn't have a ton of counting stats with just two runs scored, an RBI and no home runs, but it's still been a solid spring. The 27-year-old should be the regular first baseman for the Tigers this season, with Renato Nunez and potentially Miguel Cabrera picking up some starts when Candelario rests.

Spring games begin with fans, new faces, moment for Mancini

All over spring training, baseball enjoyed a bevy of reassuring signs Sunday on the opening day of Grapefruit and Cactus league play

FEBRUARY 28, 2021 • Associated Press

Two hits in spring debut Candelario went 2-for-2 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies.

Impact Candelario started at third base in this one, but Isaac Paredes, who has been delayed this spring by visa issues, is likely to get regular playing time there moving forward. That could push Candelario over to first, where Renato Nunez will also be competing for at-bats. Candelario had a solid 2020 campaign, posting a career-best .872 OPS in 52 games, so he should play regularly no matter where he finds himself defensively.

Arrives at camp Candelario arrived at Tigers camp Saturday and participated in fielding drills, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Candelario was one of several Detroit position players to arrive early, as full-squad workouts don't start until Monday. The 27-year-old might be preparing for increased competition at first base with the Tigers adding Renato Nunez on a minor-league deal this month. Candelario performed well in a shortened 2020 season, finishing with a career-best .872 OPS along with seven home runs and 29 RBI in 52 games, so he should get the first crack at first base, though Nunez and his 43 home runs the past two years looms as a threat to his playing time.
