Back in Tigers' fold, Jeimer Candelario wants to keep the good times rolling

Boston — He wasn’t gone that long, but in some ways Jeimer Candelario had to feel like he was walking into a completely different clubhouse Monday.

“Just the vibe,” he said. “Things are starting to go our way.”

Candelario, out since June 6 with a left shoulder subluxation, made the short drive from Worcester, Massachusetts, where he’d played four rehab games with Triple-A Toledo, and was back in the Tigers’ starting lineup against the Red Sox.

“God’s plan is perfect,” Candelario said. “I just want to be healthy and help the team win and I want to contribute to wins like they’re doing right now.
