Back in November, Detroit Tigers infielder Jeimer Candelario said he didn't have a clue where he would play defensively in 2021. Two months later — with less than a month until spring training —he still doesn't know.
Candelario, who turns 28 Sunday, isn't concerned as long as his bat is in the lineup. The positional uncertainty, however, seems to stem from the free-agent market.
"We haven't talked about what position I'm going to play, where I'm going to be," said Candelario on Thursday night on WXYT-FM (97.1) about his conversations with new manager AJ Hinch.
