BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 30% of leagues
ANALYSIS: For the second straight week, Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario has shown he might be more than just a capable replacement player. He continues to get on base and score runs hitting in front of Miguel Cabrera and Nick Castellanos. Over the last seven days, Candelario has scored 11 runs, drilled one HR, knocked in three batters, and posted a .304 batting average, and 1.060 OPS
His BABIP (.324) is not such that you would worry about a batting average (.282) regression. The one concern with Candelario is his splits; he hits .291 against right-handed pitchers, but only .190 against lefties.
If you have the ability to stream him, start him more against righties. Candelario is lined up to provide this week with favorable opponents in the next three series at Tampa Bay, Kansas City, and Texas.
