Jeimer Candelario Homers In Tuesday's Win
4 years agoDetroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario helped lead the offense in the team's 5-0 win over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. Candelario went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, a walk, two RBI and two runs in the game. He is now slashing .291/.367/.419 with four home runs on the season. His 2021 barrel rate (10.2%) is right where it was last year (10.3%), when he had a sturdy .297/.369/.503 triple-slash. However, his 2021 hard-hit rate (37%) is significantly down from last year (47.1%). Candelario should be a good source of batting average help throughout the year, but the power numbers and general counting stats may come and go.
