Candelario, returning from a back strain, has now played in 10 rehab games, and while he went 3-for-6 with two doubles in the two games in Rookie ball, he’s 6-for-30 with one extra-base hit and a 10/2 K/BB in eight games since moving up to Louisville. He’s just not making much of a case for a significant role in the Reds infield, but he’ll have to be activated in the near future, which could lead to Connor Joe being demoted or Garrett Hampson being DFA’d.

It looks to be just a routine day off for the 25-year-old first baseman who has slashed an impressive .310/.344/.655 with three homers and seven RBI in seven games since returning from the injured list. Spencer Steer will start in his place at first base and will bat sixth for the Reds against Jack Flaherty and the Tigers on Saturday.

The superstar shortstop victimized Tigers’ right-hander Keider Montero for a 374-foot (109.8 mph EV) solo shot in the fifth inning that pulled the Reds to within a run at 3-2. That would be as close as they would get. He also singled in the seventh inning and drove in a run with an RBI double in the ninth inning. With his three-hit attack, the 23-year-old is now slashing .267/.347/.477 with 14 homers, 46 RBI and 20 stolen bases on the season.

The 34-year-old right-hander piled up five strikeouts on the night while issuing a pair of walks. He served up a solo homer to Gleyber Torres on the first pitch that he threw in the ballgame. Martinez also gave up solo shots to Riley Greene in the third inning and Javier Baez in the fourth. He then exited after walking Baez to open the sixth inning and he ultimately came around to score. Martinez got seven whiffs on 89 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 24 percent. He’ll look to get back on track as he brings a 3.92 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and a 58/18 K/BB ratio (80 1/3 innings) into Thursday’s matchup against the Twins.

Clement was back at third base following an early exit from Wednesday’s contest with the Cardinals with a lower-body injury. It doesn’t appear to be a serious concern moving forward.

It sounds like the 26-year-old slugger is still going to be out for another couple of days, but it shouldn’t be anything long term. For what it’s worth, Paredes told reporters after the game that he feels close to 100 percent and should be considered day-to-day. It sounds like fantasy managers may have dodged a bullet on this one.
