JEIMER CANDELARIO NEWS

Goes deep Thursday Candelario went 3-for-7 with a solo home run and two runs scored across both games of Thursday's doubleheader against the Athletics.

Impact The home run in Game 1 was Candelario's seventh of the year and second this month. The 28-year-old has seen a dip in playing time recently, though he did start both contests Thursday at third base. Candelario will continue to jockey with Willi Castro and Harold Castro for playing time, and the former will need to improve his .198 average and .590 OPS if he wants to hold off his challengers down the stretch.

Sitting out Sunday Candelario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact With four hits -- including a home run -- to go with two walks, four RBI and four runs over his last four starts, Candelario's dormant bat is beginning to warm up. He'll give way at third base to Harold Castro in Sunday's series finale, but Candelario still looks like the top option on the depth chart.

Drives in three runs Candelario went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 7-5 win over the White Sox.

Impact Candelario belted a two-run homer off Lucas Giolito in the sixth inning before hitting an RBI single and scoring in the seventh. It was his sixth home run of the year and first since May 29. The 28-year-old registered a brutal .483 OPS during his 20-game homerless drought and he's now slashing .191/.257/.320 through 65 games this season.

Sitting for series finale Candelario is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact He'll sit for the second time in the four-game series, after he previously headed to the bench for the second contest of Monday's doubleheader. Though Candelario was productive in Tuesday's 11-4 win by going 1-for-4 with a walk, two runs and an RBI, he's still cobbled together an unremarkable .222/.333/.250 in 11 games since coming off the 10-day injured list June 20. Kody Clemens will pick up the start at third base Wednesday, and he and Harold Castro could continue to encroach on Candelario's playing time until the 28-year-old starts to get going at the plate.

Catches breather Monday night Candelario is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

Retreats to bench Candelario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Not starting Wednesday Candelario isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Boston.

Back from injured list Candelario (shoulder) was activated off the injured list as expected Monday.

Impact Candelario wound up missing two weeks with a left shoulder subluxation, but he's good to go after grabbing six hits (including two doubles and a homer) across four rehab games. The Tigers will hope to see more performances like that going forward and fewer of the games which saw him slump to a .181/.236/.319 line prior to the injury.

Should return Monday Candelario (shoulder) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Monday's game at Boston, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Candelario has been sidelined with a left shoulder subluxation since June 5, but he's ready to rejoin the Tigers after going 6-for-16 with a home run and two doubles during a four-game rehab stint with Triple-A Toledo. The 28-year-old has an awful .555 OPS through 52 games this season, but perhaps he'll reward patient fantasy managers and continue the strong performance from the rehab assignment upon his return to the big-league club.

Impact Candelario was cleared to head out on the minor-league assignment after he checked out fine when he completed agility drills Tuesday at Comerica Park. He'll most likely stay with Toledo through the weekend, but if all goes well, Candelario could be ready to return from the 10-day injured list and reclaim everyday duties at third base when the Tigers begin a series in Boston on Monday.
