June 29, 2025 1:42 PM : The Reds released Candelario on Sunday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis: After none of MLB's other 29 teams were willing to put in a waiver claim for Candelario, the Reds will be on the hook for the money remaining on the 31-year-old's three-year, $45 million deal, signed in December 2023. Given his big-league experience, Candelario shouldn't have much trouble landing with a new club, though he might have to settle for a minor-league deal after slashing just .113/.198/.213 with a 31.9 percent strikeout rate over 91 plate appearances this season.
