  • Jeimer Candelario out Thursday with knee tendinitis
    Jeimer Candelario (knee) remains out of the lineup for Thursday’s contest against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Candelario will get another day off to rest and recover as he continues to manage right knee tendinitis. The expectation is that he’ll be able to manage the ongoing issue moving forward, but if he’s unable to return in a couple days, the Reds might not have a choice besides sending him to the injured list.

  • Remaining out Thursday
    Candelario (hamstring) isn't in the Reds' lineup for Thursday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Manager David Bell said Wednesday that Candelario has been dealing with hamstring tendinitis for the past week, and while the team still doesn't plan on placing the 30-year-old on the injured list, the injury will cause him to miss a second consecutive game. Spencer Steer will get the nod at first base as a result, allowing Nick Martini to start in left field and bat fifth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:59 pm
