The Cincinnati Reds reinstated infielder Jeimer Candelario from the injured list Monday and designated him for assignment. The move comes just a year after Cincinnati signed the veteran infielder to a three-year, $45 million contract. “We felt this gives us our best chance to win games to keep the guys we had here versus activating him,” Nick Krall, the Reds’ president of baseball operations, said Monday, according to The Athletic. Krall called it a “sunk cost because you can’t bring a player that’s not going to help his team win.”
