Jeimer Candelario - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Could be done for season Candelario (toe) is unlikely to return and finish the season, MLB.com reports.

Impact Candelario, who was hit by a pitch during a game Aug. 18, landed on the injured list a couple of days later and has yet to resume baseball activities. Cincinnati manager David Bell said Saturday that it looks like Candelario will not be back this season, adding there is still pain in the toe. If that's it for Candelario, he'll finish his first season as a member of the Reds with 20 home runs, 56 RBI, four steals, 47 runs scored and a line of .225/.279/.429 over 112 games.

Yet to resume baseball activities Candelario (toe) has yet to resume baseball activities, MLB.com reports.

Impact Candelario is almost three weeks removed from suffering a fractured left great toe and he remains limited to rehabilitation work due to lingering discomfort.

Still feeling discomfort Reds manager David Bell said Tuesday that Candelario is still feeling pain in his fractured left great toe, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact It's not a surprise to hear considering he's just a week removed from landing on the 10-day injured list, but it emphasizes that Candelario is not close to a return. The Reds presumably won't allow him to resume baseball activities until he's pain-free, and after that he'll need a little time to get ramped back up.
