LAKELAND, Fla. — There’s an awful lot to like about Jeimer Candelario.

It’s the way he acts in the Detroit Tigers clubhouse — quiet but full of confidence.

It’s the way he swings his bat — solid as heck.

It’s the way he prepares — like a true pro.

It’s the way he looks so comfortable at third base.
