Cubs starting Jeimer Candelario on third base Thursday

Chicago Cubs third baseman Jeimer Candelario is starting on Thursday versus the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Kris Bryant is out with an ankle injury, so Candelario will start at third base for the defending champs. The 23-year-old third baseman is batting sixth in the order against right-hander Joe Ross and the Washington Nationals.
